Force limiter
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 38.
The electrical power window system is fitted with a force limiter. It reduces therisk of bruises or injuries when closing the windows.
If there is an obstacle, the closing process is stopped and the window goes down
by several centimetres.
If the obstacle prevents the window from being closed during the next 10 sec- onds, the closing process is interrupted once again and the window goes down by several centimetres.
If you attempt to close the window again within 10 seconds of the window being
moved down for the second time, even though the obstacle was not yet been re-
moved, the closing process is only stopped. During this time it is not possible to automatically close the window. The force limiter is still switched on.
The force limiter is only switched off if you attempt to close the window againwithin the next 10 seconds - the window will now close with full force!
If you wait longer than 10 seconds, the force limiter is switched on again.
