Do not close a door with the windows fully closed while
the power supply is interrupted (battery disconnected or
empty).
Doing so could damage the window frame.
Note:
After reconnecting the battery also set the clock,
resynchronize the express feature of the power
windows, the electronic stability program (ESP) and the
adaptive damping System (ADS).
See page 79 for setting clock, page 41 for power
windows, page 193 for ESP and page 199 for ADS.

Batteries contain materials that can harm the
environment with improper disposal.
Large 12 Volt storage batteries contain lead.
Recycling of batteries is the preferred method of
disposal.
Many states require sellers of batteries to accept old
batteries for recycling.
