make sure that nobody puts their head
or hand out of the window when closing a window.
The lowered window will become operational after

CAUTION
l
The safety mechanism is cancelled just be-
fore the window is fully closed. This al-
lows the window to close completely.
Therefore be especially careful that no fin-
gers are trapped in the window.
NOTE l The

safety mechanism can be activated if the
driving conditions or other circumstances
cause the door windows to be subjected to a
physical shock similar to that caused by a trap-
ped hand or head.
l If the safety mechanism is activated three or
more times in a row, the safety mechanism
will be cancelled and the door window will
not close correctly.
In such a case, the following procedure
should be implemented to rectify this situa-
tion. If the window is open, repeatedly raise
the appropriate window switch until that win-
dow has been fully closed. Following this, re-
lease the switch, raise the switch once again
and hold it in this condition for at least 1 sec-
ond, then release it. You should now be able
to operate all windows in the normal fashion. Sunroof*
