WINDOWS, GLASS AND MIRRORS
Operating power windows
WARNING
Using the driver's door control panel, all
power windows can be operated - using the
control panels in the other doors operates the
power window in the individual door.
Check that children or other passengers
are not at risk of crushing when all the win-
dows are closed with a remote control key
or keyless opening* with a door handle.
The power windows are equipped with pinch
protection. If any fault arises with the pinch
protection, a reset sequence can be tested.
One way to reduce the pulsating wind

to also open the front windows slightly.

In order for the power windows to be used,
the ignition position must be I or II. The power
windows can be operated for a few minutes
after the car has been switched off and after
the ignition has been switched off - although
not after a door has been opened. It is only
possible to operate one control at a time.
It may not be possible to operate windows
at low temperatures.
Never put an object or part of the body
through the windows, even if the car's
electrical system is fully disconnected.
