Opening and closing

electrically. The switches for all door windows
are located on the driver’s door control panel.
The switches for the respective door windows
are located on the front passenger door and
on the rear doors.

Operating the rear door windows from
the rear is not possible when you activate
the override switch (Y page 69).

driving situation, the door windows close until
only a small gap remains.

Warning!
When opening or closing the door windows,
make sure there is no danger of anyone
being harmed by the opening/closing
procedure.
The door windows are equipped with the
express operation and automatic reversal
function. If in express operation mode a
door window encounters an obstruction
that blocks its path, the automatic reversal
function will stop the door window and
open it slightly.
The door windows operate differently when
the switch is pressed and held. See the
“Closing when a door window is blocked”
section in this chapter for details.
The closing of the door windows can be
immediately halted by releasing the switch
or, if the switch was pulled past the
resistance point and released, by either
pressing or pulling the respective switch.
If a door window encounters an obstruction
that blocks its path in a circumstance
where you are closing the door windows by
pressing and holding button j on the
SmartKey or by pressing and holding the
lock button (vehicles with KEYLESS-GO) on
an outside door handle, the automatic
reversal function will not operate.
Activate the override switch when children
are riding in the back seats of the vehicle.
The children may otherwise injure
themselves, e.g. by becoming trapped in
the door window opening.
