The vehicle is equipped with controls for win-
dows, glass and mirrors. Some of the windows
in the car are laminated.

sun curtains
All windows and sun curtains* that are controlled
electrically have a pinch protection function that
is triggered if anything blocks them while they
are opening or closing. If pinch protection is activated, movement will
stop and then retract automatically to approx.
50 mm (2 inches) from the point at which it was
blocked (or to full ventilation position).
If pinch protection has been triggered, it is still
possible to operate the window or sun curtain
once more in the same direction without pinch
protection, if this is done within 10 seconds after
pinch protection has been triggered. It is thus still
possible to override pinch protection when clos-
ing is interrupted (e.g. due to ice) by pressing and
holding down the control until the window or sun
curtain is fully closed.
WARNING If the starter battery is disconnected, the func-
tion for automatic opening and closing must
be reset to function correctly. A reset is
required in order for the pinch protection to
work.
