IMPORTANT With ignition key at STOP or removed, the electric win-
dows remain active for about 3 minutes and are deactivated the
moment a door is opened.
IMPORTANT On some versions when the
Ëbutton on the remote
control is pressed for longer than 2 seconds the windows will open,
whilst if the
Ábutton is pressed for longer than 2 seconds the
windows will close.
The system conforms to the 2000/4/EC standard
concerning the safety of passengers leaning out of
the passenger compartment.
Incorrect use of the electric windows may be danger-
ous. Before and during operation, always check that
no passenger is at risk of being injured directly by
the moving window or by objects getting caught in or dragged
by the window. When leaving the car, always remove the key
from the ignition device to avoid the risk of injury due to ac-
cidental operation of the electric windows. This is a danger to
the people still on board.
Anti-pinch device
The car is equipped with an anti-pinch safety device for the upwards
motion of the windows.
The windows are fitted with an anti-pinch safety system that de-
tects the presence of an obstacle when they are closing and cuts
in by stopping the window and reversing it according to the posi-
tion of the window. This device is also useful when the windows
are activated accidentally by children on board the car.
The anti-pinch function is active both during manual and automat-
ic operation of the electric windows. Following the intervention of
the anti-pinch system, the window travel is immediately interrupt-
ed and subsequently reversed until the lower end of travel is
reached. The window cannot be operated in any way during this
time.
IMPORTANT If the anti-pinch protection intervenes 5 consecutive
times within a minute or is faulty, the automatic closing operation
of the window is inhibited, only allowing it in steps of half a sec-
ond; the button is released for the subsequent manoeuvre.
Open the concerned window to restore correct operation of the sys-
tem.
