Safety Switch; Glass Roof - BMW 318i Owner's Handbook Manual

Close the window similarly by pulling the
switch.
There are separate switches in the rear seat
armrests.
After the ignition is switched off
You can still operate the windows for approx.
1 minute after the remote control has been
removed or the ignition switched off.
For convenient operation by means of the
remote control or at the door lock, see page
or 19. For convenient closing with convenient
access, see Locking on page 18.
Trap protection
If the closing force of a window exceeds
a specific value as it closes, the closing action is
interrupted and the window reopens slightly.
Despite the trap protection function,
make sure that the windows are not
obstructed as they close; if this precaution is
not taken, the risk remains that thin objects, for
instance, could fail to interrupt the closing
movement.
Do not install any accessories in the movement
range of the windows in order not to impair the
trap protection function.<
Closing without the trap protection
function
In case of an external hazard, or if ice on the win-
dows, etc., does not allow you to close the win-
dows normally, proceed as follows:
1. Pull the switch past the pressure point and
hold it there. The trap protection function is
restricted and the window opens slightly
when the closing force exceeds a certain
value.
2. Pull the switch past the pressure point
again within approx. 4 seconds and hold it
there. The window closes without trap pro-
tection.
