WARNING
■ If the vehicle is locked from the outside, do not leave anybody in the vehicle
as it is not possible to open the windows from the inside in the event of an
emergency.
■ The system is fitted with a force limiter » page 34. If there is an obstacle,
the closing process is stopped and the window goes down by several centi-
metres. The windows should nevertheless be closed carefully! Otherwise
these can cause severe crushing injuries!
■ It is recommended to deactivate the electrical power windows in the rear
doors (safety pushbutton) S
» Fig. 19 on page 34 when children are being
transported on the rear seats. CAUTION
■ Keep the windows clean to ensure the correct functionality of the electric win-
dows. ■ In the event that the windows are frozen, first of all eliminate the
ice » page 130, De-icing windows and exterior mirrors and only then operate the
electrical power windows. Otherwise, the electrical power window mechanism
could be damaged. ■ When leaving the locked vehicle make sure that the windows are closed at all
times. £

Unlocking and locking

If you attempt to close the window again within 10 seconds of the window being
moved down for the second time, even though the obstacle was not yet been re-
moved, the closing process is only stopped. During this time it is not possible to
automatically close the window. The force limiter is still switched on.
The force limiter is only switched off if you attempt to close the window again
within the next 10
seconds - the window will now close with full force!
If you wait longer than 10 seconds, the force limiter is switched on again. ÐWindow convenience operation
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 33.
The electrical power windows can be opened and closed as follows when unlock-
ing and locking the vehicle.

 on the remote control key.
› Hold the key in the driver's lock in the unlock position.
Closing
› Press and hold the lock button
 on the remote control key.

You can interrupt the opening or closing process for the windows immediately by
releasing the key or the lock button. ÐOperational faults
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 33.
Electrical power windows do not operate
If the battery has been disconnected and then reconnected while the window
was opened, the electrical power windows will not operate. The system must be
activated. Proceed as follows in order to re-establish the function:
›
switch on the ignition;
› pull the top edge of the button in the driver's door to close the window;
› release the button;
› pull the relevant button upwards again for approx. 3

seconds.

ä Operation in winter
In the winter, ice accumulating on the surface of the window may cause there to
be more resistance when closing the window. The window will stop and move
back several centimetres.
It is necessary to deactivate the force limiter to close the window » page 34.Ð Panorama roof
