Understanding the reversing function

The side windows are equipped with an auto-
matic reversing feature. If a solid object
blocks or restricts a side window from clos-
ing during automatic operation, the side
window opens again automatically. During
the manual closing process, the side window
only opens again automatically after the
corresponding switch is released. The auto-
matic reversing feature is only an aid. The
driver is responsible for operating the side
windows safely.
G
WARNING
The reversing function does not react:
to soft, light and thin objects, e.g. small
R
fingers
while resetting
R
This means that the reversing feature can-
not prevent someone being trapped in
these situations. There is a risk of injury.
When closing, make sure that no parts of
the body are in the closing area. If someone
becomes trapped, press the switch to open
the side window again.

Please note
G
WARNING
While closing the side windows, body parts
in the closing area could become trapped.
There is a risk of injury.
When closing make sure that no parts of
the body are in the closing area. If some-
body becomes trapped, release the switch
or press the switch to open the side window
again.
G
WARNING
Children could become trapped if they
operate the side windows, particularly
when unattended. There is a risk of injury.
When leaving the vehicle, always take the
key with you and lock the vehicle. Never
leave children unattended in the vehicle.
G
WARNING
If you close a side window again immedi-
ately after it has been blocked or reset, the
side window closes with increased or max-
imum force. The reversing function is then
not active. Parts of the body could be trap-
ped in the closing area in the process. This
poses an increased risk of injury or even
fatal injury.
Make sure that no parts of the body are in
the closing area. To stop the closing proc-
ess, release the switch or push the switch
again to reopen the side window.
The switches for both side windows are loca-
ted on the driver's door. There is also a switch
for the front-passenger window on the front-
passenger door. The switch on the driver's
door takes precedence.
