Opening and closing<br />

Jointly<br />

> Press the switch to the resistance point:<br />

All windows open as long as you press the<br />

switch.<br />

> Press the switch beyond the resistance<br />

point:<br />

All windows open automatically. Press the<br />

switch again to stop the opening movement.<br />

> Pull the switch:<br />

All windows close as long as you pull the<br />

switch.<br />

After switching off the ignition<br />

When the remote control is removed or the ignition<br />

is switched off, you can still operate the<br />

windows for approx. 1 minute as long as no<br />

door is opened.<br />

If the closing force exceeds a specific value as a<br />

window closes, the closing action is interrupted<br />

and the window reopens slightly.<br />

Despite the pinch protection system<br />

check and clear the window's travel path<br />

prior to closing it; otherwise, the safety system<br />

might fail to detect certain kinds of obstructions,<br />

such as thin objects, and the window<br />

would continue closing.<br />

Do not install any accessories that might interfere<br />

with window movement. Otherwise, the<br />

pinch protection system could be impaired.<br />

Convertible: the rear windows are not equipped<br />

with pinch protection. Therefore, watch them<br />

closely when closing to avoid personal injury.<<br />

Closing <strong>without</strong> pinch protection<br />

If there is an external danger, or if ice on the windows,<br />

etc., prevents you from closing the windows<br />

normally, proceed as follows:<br />

1. Pull the switch past the resistance point and<br />

hold it there. Pinch protection is limited and<br />

the window reopens slightly if the closing<br />

force exceeds a certain value.<br />

2. Pull the switch again past the resistance<br />

point within approx. 4 seconds and hold it<br />

there. The window closes <strong>without</strong> pinch<br />

protection.<br />

Coupe: glass roof*, electric<br />

To prevent injuries, watch the glass roof<br />

while closing it.<br />

Take the remote control with you when you<br />

leave the car; otherwise, children could operate<br />

the roof and possibly injure themselves.<<br />

Convenient operation<br />

For information on Convenient operation via the<br />

remote control or the door lock, refer to page 19<br />

or 23. For information on Convenient closing<br />

with Comfort Access, refer to Locking on<br />

page 20.<br />

Pinch protection system<br />
