Operating power windows
All electric windows can be operated using the control panel in the driver's door – only the window in the passenger door is operated using the control panel in the passenger door.
The power windows are equipped with pinch protection. If any fault arises with the pinch protection, a reset sequence can be tested.
Warning
Children, other passengers or objects may be trapped by the moving parts.
- Always operate the windows with caution.
- Do not allow children to play with the controls.
- Never leave children alone in the car.
- Remember the power windows can be operated even if the key has been removed from the car, as long as the seat sensor can detect that the driver's seat is occupied. The driver's door must be open and the driver's seat unoccupied in order to switch off the power to the power windows. The power windows can be reactivated via the centre display, even if the key has been removed from the car and the seat sensor does not detect that the driver's seat is occupied.
- Never put an object or part of the body through the windows, even if the car's electrical system is fully disconnected.
Operating without auto. Move one of the controls gently up or down. The power windows move up or down as long as the control is held in position.
Operating with auto. Move one of the controls up or down to the end position and release it. The window runs automatically to its end position.
In order for the power windows to be used, the car must be in Comfort or Drive mode. It is only possible to operate one control at a time.
Note
One way to reduce the pulsating wind noise when the rear windows are open is to also open the front windows slightly.
Note
The windows cannot be opened at speeds above approx. 180 km/h (approx. 112 mph), but they can be closed.
The driver always bears responsibility for following traffic regulations in force.
Note
It may not be possible to operate windows at low temperatures.
