ther a door or a window from the inside. The locked doors make it more diffi-
cult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency - hazard! Note

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 170 , De-icing windows and exterior mirrors and only then operate the
power windows otherwise the power window mechanism could be damaged. ■ When leaving the locked vehicle make sure that the windows are closed at all
times. Note
■ After switching the ignition off, it is still possible to open or close the windows
for approx. 10
minutes. The power windows are only switched off completely
once the driver or front passenger door are opened. ■ When driving always use the existing heating, air conditioning and ventilation
system for ventilating the interior of the vehicle. If the windows are opened, dust
as well as other dirt can get into the vehicle and in addition the wind noise is
more at certain speeds.
■ At high speeds, you should keep the windows closed to prevent unnecessarily
high fuel consumption.
■ The convenience opening of the windows by means of the key in the driver's
lock is only possible within 45
seconds of deactivating or activating the alarm sys-
tem. ÐWindow open/close
