Windows and Mirrors

R

The doors must not be opened if power
for automatic window drop is not
available, e.g. with battery disconnected.
However, in an emergency the doors can
be opened with the windows fully up.

Window anti-trap protection

!

WARNING:

Careless closing of the windows

can override the protection
function and cause injuries.

If the battery is disconnected or

discharged the window anti-trap
protection feature is lost. When the
battery is reconnected or
recharged the window anti-trap
protection system must be reset.

Each electrically operated window has a
anti-trap protection feature. If the upward
movement of the window detects an
obstacle the anti-trap detection system
will immediately stop the window closing,
then move it downwards for a short
distance.

Anti-trap protection override

!

WARNING:

While the window is being closed for
the third time, the anti-trap detection
function is disabled. Make sure there
are no obstacles in the way of the
closing window.

The anti-trap protection will also stop the
window closing if a blockage or
resistance occurs e.g. in the window
guide channels.

Typically this might be due to icing in
winter but could also be caused by
damage or misalignment of the guide
channels or seals.
• After the initial attempt to close the

window and the anti-trap detection
has initiated, operate the close switch
a second time. This action must be
carried out within ten seconds.

• The window will attempt to close

again and operate the anti-trap
detection. The window will now close
again for the third time, but will only
operate by pressing and holding the
switch with the anti-trap detection
disabled. The window will now close
with full power. The icing in the seal
can now be broken and dispersed.

• Repeat the override action until the

window has closed. Each time the
window stops, the switch must be
operated immediately to initiate
further override action.

If this procedure fails to move the
blockage, the anti-trap detection feature
will be lost and must be reset after the
blockage has been cleared.

Reset window anti-trap protection

Ensure that the respective door is closed
and, if fitted, the convertible roof closed.
• Fully close the window, then release

the switch. Again pull the switch to
close the window and hold for two
seconds.

• Open the window fully and release the

switch. Again press the switch to
open the window and hold for two
seconds.
