Pinch protection for windows
- All power windows in your vehicle have a pinch protection function that is triggered if anything blocks them while they are opening or closing.
- If pinch protection is activated, movement will stop and then retract automatically to approx. 50 mm (2 inches) from the point at which it was blocked (or to full ventilation position).
- It is still possible to override pinch protection when closing is interrupted (e.g. due to ice) by pressing and holding down the control in the same direction.
- If there is any problem with the pinch protection, a rest procedure can be tested.
If the starter battery is disconnected, the function for automatic opening and closing must be reset to function correctly. A reset is required in order for the pinch protection to work.
Reset procedure for window pinch protection
If the starter battery is disconnected, the function for automatic opening and closing must be reset to function correctly. A reset is required in order for the pinch protection to work.
- Start with the window in the closed position.
- Then move the control in manual mode three times upward toward the closed position.
The system will be automatically activated.
Windows, glass, and mirrors
- The vehicle is equipped with several different types of windows, glass and mirrors. Many of these are laminated, tinted and/or heated.
- The windshield, panoramic roof and door side windows have laminated glass. Laminated glass is reinforced, which provides better protection against break-ins and improved soundproofing in the passenger compartment.
The symbol shows the windows containing laminated glass.
Do not use solar film with a metalized surface on the rear window. This can interfere with reception because the vehicle’s radio antenna is located inside the window.
