Direction Indicators
The direction indicators, the left column
stalk, operate when the ignition is in
position ‘II’. Move the stalk up for
indicating a right turn or move it down to
indicate a left turn.
Two positions are provided. The first
position, partly moving the stalk up or
down, causes the indicator to flash while
it is held in this position. On releasing the
stalk the indicators stop flashing.
The second position is a full movement of
the stalk up or down, which can then be
released. The indicators will remain
flashing and will cancel when the turn is
completed. An audible ticking an
d a flashing green
arrow on the instrument cluster indicates
that the selected direction indicator is
operating.
Bulb failure
The direction indicators (including those
on a trailer, if attached) and side
repeaters are monitored for bulb failure.
If a bulb fails when it is on, a message is
shown in the message centre. At the same
time, the corresponding side green
warning light will flash at twice the
normal rate. The audible ticking will

Window Operation
The front and rear door windows are
electrically operated by switches located
on each door.
Switches on the driver’s door control all
door windows.
Passengers are provided with a switch to
control their door window only.
These switches will only operate the
windows when the ignition switch is in
position ‘I’ or ‘II’.
Button (A) immobilises operation of the
rear windows (and front seat adjustment,
when fitted) by rear seat occupants.
!WARNING:
1. When raising windows ensure all occupants are clear.
2. When leaving the vehicle take the ignition keys to prevent misuse of
the window switches by
remaining occupants, especially
children.
Raise/lower
Each switch has two positions to raise the
window and two positions to lower the
window.
To lower a window, press the switch
downwards to the first position until the
desired window position is reached, then
release.
To raise a window, pull the switch
upwards to the first position until the
desired position is re ached, then release.
If the switches are held for longer than
6 seconds, for example, when attempting
to overcome frozen or jammed windows,
the window drive will be switched off for
a few seconds to protect the window
drive motors. The windows can be operated with the
key removed from the ignition switch
within 10 minutes of the vehicle being
stopped provided the driver’s or front
passenger’s door has not been opened.
If a rear door is opened the windows can
still be operated within the 10 minute
period.
One-touch operation
Each window has a ‘one-touch’ facility
enabling the occupant to fully open or
close the window in one quick
movement.
Press the switch briefly to the second
position to fully open the window in one
movement. Pull the swit
ch briefly to the
second position to fully close the window
in one movement. Window travel can be
stopped at any time by pressing the
switch again.

4-30 On the Road
Immobilising the rear windows
To immobilise the rear windows (and
operation of the front seat by a rear seat
passenger, when this feature is fitted),
press button (A) (see previous page
illustration). The LED in the button will
light up showing that the rear windows
cannot be operated by rear seat
occupants. Pressing the button again will
enable occupants to operate the rear
windows. See also Rear Seat
Adjustment on page 3 - 4.
Window Anti-trap Protection
Each electrically operated window has an
anti-trap protection feature.
If the upward movement of the window
detects an obstacle the anti-trap system
will immediately stop the window
closing, then move it downwards for a
short distance.
!WARNING:
If the battery is disconnected or
discharged the window anti-trap
feature is lost. When the battery is
reconnected or recharged the
window anti-trap system must be
reset. To reset the electrically operated
windows anti-trap system
• Fully close the window, hold the
switch in the close position for two
seconds and then release the switch.
Wait for two seconds, do not open
the window.
• Again, select the same window to close, holding the sw itch for a further
two seconds.
• Check to confirm the operation by opening the window and then use
one-touch operation to close the
window.
• Repeat for the remaining electrically operated windows.
To override the anti-trap protection
The anti-trap system will also stop the
window closing if a bl ockage or resistance
occurs e.g. in the wi ndow guide channels.
Typically this might be due to icing in
winter but could also be caused by
damage or mis-alignment of the guide
channels or seals. To override the anti-trap action:
• After the initial attempt to close the
window, operate the close switch a
second time.
• When the window has reversed from the blockage, operate the switch
(within 10 seconds) until the window
stops again (it will not reverse on the
third attempt).
• Immediately operate the close switch again. The window will now move up
a short distance with increased force
to override the blockage.
• Repeat the override action until the window has closed. Each time the
window stops, the switch must be
operated immediately to initiate
further override action.
If this procedure fails to move the
blockage, the anti-trap feature will be lost
and must be reset (see previous column)
after the blockage has been cleared.
Thermal overload
If the windows are repeatedly opened
and closed (e.g. by a child), a protection
system will deactivate window operation
for a short period to avoid overheating of
the window motors.

On the Road 4 - 31
Wipers and Washers
The windscreen wipers and screen wash
functions are controlled by the right-hand
column stalk switch and only operate
with the ignition in position ‘II’.
Moving the stalk up or down operates or
turns off the windscreen wipers.
Windscreen Wipers
The stalk functions are as follows:
Position (A):
The windscreen wipers are OFF and
parked.
First position ( B):
Intermittent wipe.
Second position (C ):
Slow speed wiper operation.
Third position ( D):
High speed wiper operation.
Intermittent wipe
When intermittent w ipe is selected the
delay between wipes can be varied.
Turn the collar ( E) to vary the delay from
3 seconds to 18 seconds.
Flick wipe
Pull the column switch towards the
steering wheel for a single wipe. Holding
the column switch in this position will
operate the wiper continuously at slow
speed until released. Rain sensitive wiper control
When AUTO, (turn the rotary collar [
E] to
AUTO) and intermittent wipe is selected,
the wipers will automatically operate to
clear the windscreen when rain falls on to
the windscreen, or when moisture is
present.
For the wipers to operate, the ignition
switch must be in position ‘II’.
Note: When starting a journey with a wet
windscreen, the rain sensing wipers will
not operate immediately the ignition is
switched on, therefore, a flick wipe
should be used to clear the windscreen of
any moisture.
Caution: Ensure that AUTO is not
selected when entering a car wash or
damage to the wiper blades/arms can
occur.
