The window can be operated mechanically by means of the handle attached to
the respective door panel.
Depending on equipment the windows can be operated electrically from the
following locations; the window in the front doors or all windows from the
driver's seat and also via the buttons for the windows in the passenger door or
the rear doors.
WARNINGThe windows should nevertheless be closed carefully – risk of injury!
CAUTION
■ In the event that the windows are frozen, first of all eliminate the ice
» page 136 , Windows and external mirrors and only then operate the electri-
cal power windows. Otherwise, the window sealing and the electrical power
window mechanism could be damaged.■
Make sure that the windows are closed whenever you leave the locked vehi-
cle.
For the sake of the environment
At high speeds you should keep the windows closed to prevent unnecessarily high fuel consumption.
Note
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.Mechanical window lefterFig. 43

illuminates.
The window lift mechanism is equipped with protection against overheating.
Repeated opening and closing of the window can cause this mechanism to
overheat. If this happens, it will not be possible to operate the window for a
short time. You will be able to operate the window again as soon as the over-
heating protection has cooled down.
ABCDEWARNING■ Power windows in the driver's door and the rear doors are equipped with
a force limiter » page 58. If there is an obstacle, the closing process is
stopped and the window goes down by several centimetres. However, the
windows should be closed carefully – risk of injury!■
If the rear seats are accommodating people who are not completely inde-
pendent, e.g. children, it is recommended that for safety reasons the but-
tons in the rear doors are disabled with the button
E
.
CAUTION
■ In the winter, ice on the window may cause greater resistance as the win-
dow is closed. The window will stop and open again by several centimetres.■
Keep the windows clean to ensure the correct functionality of the electric
windows.

The level of the seat heating is indicated by the number of illuminated warning
lights in the switch.
WARNINGIf you have a subdued pain and/or temperature sensitivity, e.g. through
medication, paralysis or because of chronic illness (e.g. diabetes), we rec-
ommend not to use the seat heating. There may be difficult to heal burns. If
the seat heating is used, we recommend to make regular breaks in your
journey when driving long distances, so that the body can recuperate from
the stress of the journey. Please consult your doctor, who can evaluate
your specific condition.
CAUTION
The following instructions must be observed to avoid damage to the seats.■Do not kneel on the seats or otherwise apply concentrated pressure to them.■
Do not turn on any of the seat heaters if seats are not occupied.
■
Do not switch on the relevant seat heating if the seats have objects attached
to or placed on them, for example a child seat, a bag, etc.
■
When there are additional protective covers or protective covers mounted on
each of the seats, do not turn the seat heating on.
Note
■ If the heaters for the rear seats are set to their highest intensity - level 2,
they are automatically switched down to level 1 after 10 minutes.■
