Front and rear passenger doors
(for versions/markets, where provided)
On the passenger side front door control panel,
and on some versions also on the rear doors,
buttons are provided to control the associated
windows.
Anti-crush safety device
The car is equipped with an anti-crush function
for the raising of the front and rear windows. This
safety system detects the presence of an obstacle
during the window closing travel and intervenes
by stopping and reversing the window travel,
depending on its position.
This device is also useful if the windows are
activated accidentally by children on board the
car.
The anti-crush safety function is active both
during the manual and the automatic operation of
the window. When the anti-crush system is
activated the window travel is immediately
interrupted and then reversed. The window
cannot be operated in any way during this
operation.
IMPORTANT If the anti-crush protection
intervenes 3 consecutive times within 1 minute or
is faulty, the automatic closing operation of the
window is inhibited, only allowing it in steps
of half a second; the button is released for the
subsequent manoeuvre. In order to restore the
correct operation of the system, the relevant
window must be lowered.IMPORTANT With ignition key at STOP or
removed, the electric windows remain active for
about 3 minutes and are deactivated when a door
is opened.
IMPORTANT Where the anti-crush function is
present, pressing button
on the remote control
for more than 2 seconds opens the windows for as
long as the button is pressed. Pressing the
button for more than 2 seconds closes the
windows.
The system conforms to the 2000/4/EC
standard concerning the safety of
passengers leaning out of the passenger
compartment.

The frequency of the acoustic signal:
❒increases as the distance between the car and
the obstacle decreases;
❒becomes continuous when the distance between
the car and the obstacle is less than 30 cm and
stops immediately if the distance increases;
❒is constant if the distance is unchanged.
If several obstacles are detected by the sensors,
only the nearest one is considered.
FAULT INDICATION
Any parking sensor faults will be indicated when
reverse is engaged by the
warning light on
the instrument panel together with the message in
the multifunction display (for versions/markets,
where provided) (see “Warning lights and
messages” section).OPERATION WITH TRAILER
Sensor operation is deactivated automatically
when the trailer's electric cable plug is fitted into
the car's tow hook socket.
The sensors are automatically reactivated when
the trailer's cable plug is removed.
For correct operation, sensors must
always be clean from mud, dirt, snow
or ice. Be careful not to scratch or
damage the sensors while cleaning them.
Avoid using dry, rough or hard cloths. The
sensors must be washed using clean water,
with the addition of car shampoo if necessary.
When using special washing equipment such
as high pressure jets or steam cleaning, clean
the sensors very quickly keeping the jet more
than 10 cm away.
