Opening and closing windows
With the ignition lock in radio ready state or
higher, refer to page
>
Press the switch down to the resistance
point:
The window continues to open as long as
you continue to hold the switch.
>
Briefly press the switch beyond the resis-
tance point:
The window opens automatically. Briefly
press the switch again to stop the opening
movement.
You can close the windows in the same manner
by pulling the switch.
After switching off ignition
You can still operate the power windows:
>
For an extended period in radio ready state.
>
For approx. 1 minute when the ignition is
switched off or with the remote control dis-
engaged.
To open, press the switch beyond the resis-
tance point.
Pinch protection system
If the force rises beyond a predefined threshold
while a window is being closed, then the system
will immediately stop the closing movement
and open the window again slightly.
Despite the presence of the pinch protec-
tion system, make sure to inspect the
window's travel path prior to closing it, as the
safety system might fail to detect certain kinds
of obstructions, such as very thin objects, and
the window would continue closing.
The protection provided by the pinch protec-
tion system is limited when the switch is pulled
beyond the resistance point and held. Under
these circumstances, if the closing force
exceeds a defined threshold, then the window
opens only slightly.
If you pull the switch again beyond the resis-
tance point and hold it in position, within a
period of approx. 4 seconds, the pinch protec-
tion system will be deactivated.
Do not install any accessories in the range of
movement of the windows; otherwise, the pinch
protection system will be impaired.
<
When you close the windows they will
slow down as they approach the end of
their travel; this is to allow the pinch protection
system to respond more precisely to any
obstructions encountered in this critical
range.

Safety switch
With the safety switch, you can prevent the rear
windows from being opened or closed via the
switches in the rear passenger area, by chil-
dren, for example.
The same is true for:
>
the adjustment of the electrical rear seats,
refer to page
>
the adjustment of the electrical head
restraints in the rear, refer to page
>
the operation of the roller sun blind from the
rear, refer to page
The LED lights up when this safety feature is
activated.
Press the safety switch when children
ride in the rear; otherwise, unsupervised
closing of the windows could lead to injuries.
