• Always take the vehicle key with you when you leave the vehicle.

• Never leave children or disabled persons in the vehicle, particularly if they have access to the keys. Unsupervised use of a key could mean that the engine is started or that electrical equipment is used (e.g. electric windows). Risk of accident. The doors can be locked using the remote control key. This could result in people being trapped in the vehicle in an emergency.

• The electric windows will work until the key has been removed from the ignition and one of the front doors has been opened.

• If necessary, use the safety switch to disable the rear electric windows. Make sure that they have been disabled.

Note

If the window is not able to close because it is stiff or because of an obstruction, the window will automatically open again. If this happens, check why the window could not be closed before attempting to close it again.

One-touch opening and closing

The one-touch opening and closing function is only possible on the front doors and can only be activated from the driver's door.

One-touch opening

– Push down the button for the window briefly to the second position. The window opens fully.

Restoring one-touch opening and closing

– Close all windows.

– Use the key to lock the vehicle from outside and hold the key in the lock position for at least one second. The one-touch function is now ready for operation.

The buttons, fig. 52  and
have two levels for opening the window
and two for closing it. This makes it easier to open or close windows to the desired position. One-touch closing does not work when the ignition has been switched off, even if the key is in the ignition. The automatic open and close function will not work if the battery has been temporarily disconnected, or if the battery is flat. The function then has to be reactivated. The one-touch function and roll-back function will not work if there is a malfunction in the electric windows. Contact an Authorised Service Centre.

Roll-back function

The windows have a roll-back function. This reduces the risk of injuries when the windows are closing.

• If a window is obstructed when closing automatically, the window stops at this point and lowers immediately ⇒ .

• If this happens, check immediately (within 10 seconds) why the window could not be closed before attempting to close it again. After 10 seconds the normal automatic function resumes.

• If the window is still obstructed, the window stops at this point.

• If there is no obvious reason why the window cannot be closed, try to close it again within five seconds. If you wait longer than 5 - 10 seconds, the window will open fully when you operate one of the buttons. One-touch closing is reactivated.

The one-touch function and roll-back function will not work if there is a malfunction in the electric windows. Contact an Authorised Service Centre.
