WINDOWS, GLASS AND MIRRORS
Windows, glass and mirrors
The vehicle is equipped with several different
types of windows, glass and mirrors. Some of
the windows in the car are laminated.
The windshield has laminated glass. Lamina-
ted glass is also available as on option for
some other glass surfaces. Laminated glass is
reinforced, which provides better protection
against break-ins and improved soundproofing
in the passenger compartment.
The panoramic roof* also has laminated glass.
The symbol shows the windows containing lamina-
ted glass. 1

Pinch protection for windows and
sun curtains
All power windows and sun curtains* 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 protec-
tion, a rest procedure can be tested.
WARNING
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.
