Continuous automatic operation
(where provided)
This is activated by pressing one of the two buttons for longer than
half a second. The window will stop when it reaches the end of
travel or when the button is pressed again.
❍ Driver's side: raising/lowering
❍ Passenger side: lowering only
❍ Where the anti-crush safety device is present: driver's side and
passenger side raising/lowering.
Anti-pinch safety device
(for versions/markets where provided)
The vehicle is equipped with an anti-pinch safety device for the
upwards motion of the windows.
This safety system is capable of recognizing the presence of an ob-
stacle whilst the window is closing; when this happens, the system
stops the travel of the glass and, depending on the position of
the window, reverses its movement.
This device is also useful when the windows are activated acci-
dentally by children on board the vehicle.
The anti-pinch function is active both during manual and automat-
ic operation of the electric windows. Following the intervention
of the anti-pinch system, the window travel is immediately inter-
rupted and subsequently reversed until the lower end of travel is
reached. During this time the window cannot be operated in any
way.
