If the display of the instrument cluster shows a mes-
sage relating to the function restriction of the blinds,
the maximum speed of the vehicle is limited to 160
km/h.
The cause may be ice or snow in the area around the
blinds. After the ice or snow has thawed, the blinds
are functional again.
✓ Independent car heating switched off.
✓ Ignition off.
✓ Park the vehicle on a horizontal surface.
Should the impairment not be due to ice or snow,
assistance from a specialist should be sought.
