Power Windows - Alfa Romeo 159 Owner's Handbook Manual

POWER WINDOWS

Versions with 2 front power windows
are fitted with automatic window open-
ing/closing only on the driver's side.
Versions with 4 power windows are fit-
ted with automatic window opening/
closing on all doors. For versions/mar-
kets where applicable the passenger
side electrical window and the rear elec-
trical windows are provided with a safe-
ty system with anti-crushing seal able to
recognize the eventual presence of an
obstacle during the closing movement
of the window; upon verification of this
event the system interrupts and imme-
diately inverts the run of the window.
This system is particularly useful when
children operate the windows inadver-
tently and make it possible to close/
open (where provided) the windows us-
ing the remote control when leaving the
car.
IMPORTANT In the event the anti-
crushing function is activated 5 times in
only 1 minute or in the event of a fail-
ure, the system will automatically enter
the "recovery" mode (self-protection).
This condition is pointed out by the fact
that, in the closing stroke, the windows
goes up in jerks.
In this case it is necessary to carry out
system restore procedure as follows:
❒ open the windows;
or
❒ remove and then refit the key into the
ignition device.
If no malfunction is present, the window
returns to its normal operation automat-
ically. In the event of a failure see section
"Warning lights and messages".
