46Using the system
Page 50 of 287

The top lid position is adjusted, for example, in the following situations.
› When the space for opening the lid is limited (e.g. garage height).
› For a more convenient operation, such as by a person's height.
The top position which is reached when the lid opens automatically, is always
lower than the maximum top position which can be reached when the lid is
opened manually.
The lid always opens to the height which was last stored.
Malfunctions
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 44.
If the battery is disconnected and reconnected while the lid is open, it is necessa-
ry to activate the system of the electric boot lid. Activation means closing the lid
by hand. Thus, the end position of the lid is stored under fully closed in secured lock.

This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Opening/closing the window from the driver seat

Operational faults
49
The electrical power windows can only be operated when the ignition is switched
on.
After switching the ignition off, it is still possible to open or close the windows for
approx. 10 minutes. The electrical power windows are only switched off com- pletely once the driver's door or front passenger door are opened.
When driving always use the existing heating, air conditioning and ventilation
system for ventilating the interior of the vehicle. If the windows are opened, dust
as well as other dirt can get into the vehicle and in addition the wind noise is
more at certain speeds.
WARNING■ Ensure that no persons are still left in the vehicle when locking the vehicle.
In an emergency, the windows will no longer be able to be opened from the
inside.■
The system is fitted with a force limiter » page 49. If there is an obstacle,
the closing process is stopped and the window goes down by several centi-
metres. The windows should nevertheless be closed carefully – risk of injury!
■
It is recommended to deactivate the electrically operated power windows in
the rear doors (safety switch)
S
if there are children in the rear seats » Fig. 23
on page 48.
CAUTION
■ Keep the windows clean to ensure the correct functionality of the electric win-
dows.■
In the event that the windows are frozen, first of all eliminate the
ice » page 207 , De-icing windows and exterior mirrors and only then operate the
electrical power windows. Otherwise, the window sealing and the electrical pow- er window mechanism could be damaged.
■
In the winter, ice accumulating on the surface of the window may cause there
to be more resistance when closing the window. The window will stop and move back several centimetres.
■
It is necessary to deactivate the force limiter to close the window » page 49.
■
When leaving the locked vehicle make sure that the windows are closed at all
times.

The window can be completely opened automatically by briefly pressing the but-ton down as far as the stop. Renewed pressing of the button causes the window
to stop immediately.
Closing›
Lightly press the appropriate button up and hold it until the window has moved
into the desired position.
The window can be completely closed automatically by briefly pressing the but-
ton up as far as the stop. Renewed pressing of the button causes the window to
stop immediately.
Force limit
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 47.
The electrical power window system is fitted with a force limiter. It reduces the
risk 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 again
within 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.
Window convenience operation
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 47.
Convenience opening/closing of all windows can be operated by locking/unlock-
