Force limiter of the power windows
The electrically operated power windows are fitted with a force limiter. It reduces
the risk of bruises or injuries when closing the windows.
If there is an obstacle, the closing process is stopped and the window goes down by
several centimeters.
If the obstacle prevents the window from being closed during the next 10 seconds,
the closing process is interrupted once again and the window goes down by several
centimeters.
You must try to close the window once again within 10 seconds after the window
has gone down twice, even if the obstacle was not yet removed, the closing process
is stopped. During this time it is not possible to automatically close the window. The
force limiter is still switched on.
The force limiter is only switched off, if you attempt to close the window within the
next 10 seconds - the window closes now with full strength!
If you wait longer than 10 seconds, the force limiter is switched on again.

You should take particular care when closing the windows! You may other-
