POWER WINDOWS
WARNING: Do not leave children
unattended in your vehicle and do not let
them play with the power windows. Failure

and make sure that children and pets are
not in the proximity of the window

an obstruction. Overriding Bounce-Back WARNING:
If you override
bounce-back, the window does not reverse
if it detects an obstacle. Take care when
closing the windows to avoid personal
injury or damage to your vehicle.
Proceed as follows to override this
protection feature when there is a
resistance, for example in winter:
1. Close the window twice until it reaches
the point of resistance and let it
reverse.
2. Close the window a third time to the point of resistance. You disabled the
bounce-back feature and you can now
close the window manually. The
window goes past the point of
resistance and you can fully close it.
Note: If the window does not close, have
your vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Resetting Bounce-Back WARNING:
Bounce-back is off until
you reset the memory. Take care when
closing the windows to avoid personal
injury or damage to your vehicle.
If you have disconnected the battery, you
must reset the bounce-back memory
separately for each window.
1. Lift and hold the switch until the window is fully closed.
2. Release the switch.
3. Lift and hold the switch again for a few
seconds.
4. Release the switch.
