In the back, separate switches are provided in
the armrests.
For convenience operation using the remote
control or the door lock, refer to pages
20 , 21 .
After switching off ignition
You can operate the windows for up to 1 minute
as long as no door has been opened.
Pinch protection system
If the closing force rises beyond a predefined
threshold when a window is being closed, the
system will interrupt the closing of the window
prior to lowering it slightly.
Despite the presence of the pinch protec-
tion system, inspect the window's travel
path prior to closing it, as the safety system
might fail to detect certain kinds of obstruc-
tions, such as very thin objects, and the window
would continue closing.
Do not install any accessories in the movement
range of the window as this could impair the
function of the pinch protection system.
<
Closing without pinch protection
system
When there is danger outside or when, for
example, ice on the window prevents a normal
closing, press the switch past the resistance
point and hold it there. The window will close
without the pinch protection system.
Following interruptions in electrical
power supply
After disconnecting the battery, the pinch pro-
tection system must be reinitialized. To do this,
open and close the windows once and continue
pull the switch for longer than approx. 2 sec-
onds after closing.
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 LED lights up when this
safety function is activated.
Press the safety switch when children
ride in the rear; otherwise, unsupervised
closing of the windows could lead to injuries. <
Panorama glass sunroof*
The panorama glass sunroof is ready for opera-
tion with the ignition key in position 2.
Keep panorama glass sunroof in your line
of sight while closing. Failure to do so can
result in bodily injury.
Always remove the key when leaving the vehi-
cle; otherwise, children could operate the sun-
roof and injure themselves.
<
Raising
Press the switch.
The closed roof is raised and the sliding visor
opens slightly.
