Interior motion sensor

In order for the interior motion sensor to
function properly, the windows and glass
roof must be completely closed.

Be sure to deactivate the interior motion
sensor, refer to section on Avoiding unin-
tentional alarms, when you wish to leave
the windows or glass roof open.

Windows

Opening and closing windows

From radio mode on:

>

Press the switch until you feel resis-
tance:
The window continues to move down-
ward as long as you continue to hold
the switch

>

Briefly press the switch beyond the
resistance point:
The window moves downward auto-
matically. 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 the ignition

You can still operate the power windows:

>

For approx. 15 minutes with the remote
control unit in the radio mode

>

For approx. 1 minute in position 0 or
with the remote control unit disen-
gaged.

To open, press the switch beyond the
resistance point.

When leaving the vehicle parked,
always remove the remote control

from the ignition lock and close the doors;
this precaution prevents children from
operating the power windows and injuring
themselves, etc.

Safety feature

If the force rises beyond a predefined
threshold during closing, the system will
stop moving the window prior to lowering it
slightly.

Despite this safety feature you should
always 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.
Pulling the switch beyond the resistance
point and holding it limits the response of
the safety feature. Under these conditions
the window will respond to forces beyond a
defined threshold by only opening several
millimeters.
If you again pull the switch past the resis-
tance point and hold it in position within a
period of roughly 4 seconds, the safety fea-
ture will be deactivated.

<

When you close the windows they will
slow down as they approach the end

of their travel; this is to allow the safety fea-
ture to respond more precisely to any
obstructions encountered in this critical
range.
