Electric Windows - Aston Martin DB 9 2010 Manual

Electric Windows

Warning: Misuse of the window switches, especially by
children, can result in injury due to entrapment in the window
closure. Drivers must advise all occupants of the possible danger
and make sure that all obstructions are clear before raising the
window.
The windows can be operated up to one minute after the vehicle
key is removed from the Ignition Control.
Volante Only: Due to wind pressure when travelling at very high
speeds the door windows may not close correctly.
To raise and lower the windows the vehicle key must be at position
'I' or 'II' in the Ignition Control.

Lower - Lightly press and release the
window switch (A) to lower the
window in stages. Press firmly and
release to lower the window with one
touch.
Raise - Pull back and hold to raise the
window in one movement. Lightly pull
back and release the window switch to
raise the window in stages.
If power to the electric windows has
been interrupted for any reason, they will fail to operate correctly
until reset (Refer to 'Door Window Reset', page 11.42).
Door Sealing
Warning: Make sure that all occupants are clear when the
window mechanism is operating.
To minimize wind noise and to make sure that the window seal is
watertight a door sealing system is used to provide a tight fit of the
door glass to the seals around the top of the door opening.
When a door is opened, the window glass automatically lowers a few
millimeters to clear the door seal. As the door is closed, the window
glass automatically, after a pause, raises against the body frame
rubber seals.
