Switches for electric windows

Child-proof catches^*

When the safety switch -S- Fig. 1 is pressed in, the symbol

in the switch lights up. The window switches in the rear doors are deactivated.

WARNING!

Always take the key with you when leaving the vehicle - even if you only intend to be gone for a short time. This is especially important if children are left in the car. They might otherwise be able to start the engine or use power-operated equipment such as the electric windows - this could lead to injuries. The window switches are only deactivated when the driver's door or the front passenger's door is opened.
Always be careful when closing the windows. Careless use of the electric windows can cause severe injuries.
When locking the vehicle from the outside, make sure that nobody is inside the vehicle, as the windows cannot be opened from the inside in an emergency.

Note

When the doors are opened, the windows will automatically be lowered about 10 mm.
If the driver's or front passenger's door is opened with the window all the way down, the window will be raised by about 25 mm. The window will be lowered again when you close the door.
The windows can be operated for about ten minutes after the ignition has been switched off. The window switches are only deactivated when the driver's door or the front passenger's door is opened.
