Electric power windows

Opening and closing the windows

In ignition key position 1 or 2:

> Depress the rocker switch until you

feel resistance:

The window continues moving for as

long as you maintain pressure on the

switch

> Press the rocker switch beyond the

resistance point:

The window moves automatically.

Press the switch a second time to

stop the window

380us651

After the ignition has been switched off:

> You can continue to operate the

power windows as long as one of the

front doors has not been opened. To

open a window, press the rocker

switch past the resistance point.

Remove the ignition key when you

leave the vehicle and close the

doors so that children can no longer

operate the power windows, possibly

injuring themselves, for instance.<

For the convenience operating mode

via the door lock or the remote control,

refer to page 34 or page 36.

Safety feature

A contact strip is integrated into each of

the upper window frame sections. If

pressure is exerted against this contact

strip while a window is being raised, the

system will respond by stopping the

window and then retracting it a small

distance.

Despite this safety feature, be ex-

tremely careful that the closing

path of the window is not obstructed

whenever it is closed. Otherwise, an

object might not touch the contact strip

in some situations (with very thin ob-

jects, for instance). You can override

this safety feature by pressing the

switch beyond the resistance point and

holding it.

Because the power windows are sealed

at high pressure to prevent wind noise

when closed, a powerful motor is re-

quired for efficient closing. When clos-

ing the windows, always ensure that

they are not obstructed in any way. Un-

supervised use of these systems can

result in serious personal injury. Re-

move the ignition key to deactivate the

electric power windows whenever you

leave the car. Never leave the keys in

the car with unsupervised children.

Never place anything that could ob-

struct the driver's vision on or next to

the windows.<
