What you should be mindful of
NOTICE
Risk of damage to the strip, the door and the body!
Window - with electrical operation
What you should be mindful of
Do not open the door too hastily or abruptly.
▶
Do not hold the door on the strip when opening
and closing, as the strip must be able to move in
and out freely.
▶
Force limitation
If the strip prevents the door from closing freely,
do not close the door forcefully! Remove the strip,
and seek the help of a specialist garage.
▶
To reduce the risk of pinch injuries when closing the
windows, the vehicle has a force limiter.
If there is an obstacle, the window closing process is
stopped and the pane retracts by several centime-
tres.
Usage
If the obstacle prevents it from being closed for the
next 10 seconds, the closing process is interrupted
once again and the window goes down by several
centimetres.
Depending on the equipment, the doors can each be
provided with a protective strip. This moves out
when opening the door and protects the central area
of the door edge from damage.
If you attempt to close the window again within
10 seconds of the window being moved down for
the second time, even though the obstacle was not
yet been removed, the closing process is only stop-
ped. During this time, it is not possible to automati-
cally close the windows by pulling the button all the
way. The force limiter is, however, switched on.
When the door closes the protective strip retracts.
Self help
Replace damaged strip
CAUTION
Risk of injury!
The force limiter is only not operational if you at-
tempt to close the window again within the next
10 seconds – the window will now close with full
force! If you wait longer than 10 seconds, the force
limiter is switched on again.
Be careful when handling the strip.
