When the vehicle has not been locked from outside, the » Fig. 37 button can
be used to unlock or lock the vehicle.
Unlocking/locking » Fig. 37
If the symbol
in the button is lit, the vehicle is locked.
The central locking system also operates if the ignition is switched off.
The following applies after locking.
› Opening the doors and the boot lid from the outside is not possible.
› The doors can be unlocked and opened from the inside by a single pull on the
opening lever of the respective door.
› In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the locked
doors are automatically unlocked in order to enable rescuers to gain access
to the vehicle.
WARNING■ Doors locked from the inside make it difficult for rescuers to get into the
vehicle in an emergency – danger to life!■
If the Safelock system is switched on » page 57, the door opening levers
and the central locking buttons do not operate.
CAUTIONIf at least one door has been opened, the vehicle cannot be locked.

Operational faults
66WARNINGThe system is fitted with a force limiter » page 65. 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 in-
jury!
CAUTION
■ Keep the windows clean to ensure the correct functionality of the electric
windows.■
In the event that the windows are frozen, first of all eliminate the
ice » page 183 , Windows and external mirrors and only then operate the elec-
trical power windows. Otherwise, the window sealing and the electrical power
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 win-
dow » page 65 .
■
When leaving the locked vehicle make sure that the windows are closed at
all times.
■
Always close the sliding/tilting roof before disconnecting the battery.
For the sake of the environment
At high speeds, you should keep the windows closed to prevent unnecessarily high fuel consumption.Note■ After switching the ignition off, it is still possible to open or close the win-
dows for approx. 10 minutes. After the driver's or front passenger's door has
been opened, the windows can only be operated by using button A
» Fig. 43
on page 64 .
■
When driving always use the existing heating, air conditioning and ventila-
tion 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.
■
The window lift mechanism is equipped with protection against overheating.
Repeated opening and closing of the window can cause this mechanism to
overheat. If this happens, it will not be possible to operate the window for a
short time. You will be able to operate the window again as soon as the over-
heating protection has cooled down.

Force limit
Read and observe
and on page 64 first.
The electrical power window system is fitted with a force limiter.
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 be-
ing moved down for the second time, even though the obstacle was not yet
been removed, 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.

Force limiter
The sliding/tilting roof is fitted with a force limiter. The sliding/tilting roof

WARNINGWhen operating the sliding/tilting roof, proceed with caution to avoid caus-
ing crushing injuries – risk of injury!A12CAUTIONDuring the winter it may be necessary to remove any ice and snow in the vicin-
ity of the sliding/tilting roof before opening it to prevent any damage to the
opening mechanism.
Malfunctions of the sliding/tilting roof

on page 68 first.
If, for example, the battery has been disconnected and reconnected, it is possi-ble that the sliding/tilting roof will not operate correctly. The sun roof must be
activated.

Switching the rear window heater on/off
Switching the windscreen heater on/off
When the heater is switched on, a lamp lights up inside or below the button.
The heating only works when the engine is running.
The heater automatically switches off after approximately 10 minutes.
If the heating of the motor is switched off with the heating turned on and then
started again within 15 minutes again, the heating is continued. The start of
the time limit for the Auto Off is counted before switching off the engine al-
ready from switching on the heating.
For the sake of the environment
The heating should be switched off as soon as the window is de-iced or free
from mist. The reduced current consumption will have a favourable effect on
fuel economy.
Note
■ If the on-board voltage drops, the heater switches off automatically, in order
to provide sufficient electrical energy for the engine control » page 203, Auto-
matic load deactivation .■
If the light within or below the button flashes, the radiator will not work be-
cause of the low state of the battery.
■
If the Climatronic recognises that the windshield could fog up, the windshield
heating is automatically switched on. This function can be activated/deactiva-
ted in the Infotainment » Operating instructions for Infotainment , chapter ve-
hicle settings .
