The windows in the doors can be operated electrically by means of the buttons
contained in the doors.
WARNINGThe system is fitted with a force limiter » page 63. If there is an obstacle,
the closing process is stopped and the window goes down by several centi-
metres. However, the windows should be closed carefully – risk of injury.
CAUTION
■ If windows are frozen, always remove ice » page 196, Windows and external
mirrors before operating the electrical power windows. The window seals and
the electrical power window mechanism can otherwise 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 lim-
iter to close the window » page 63.
■
Always make sure that the windows are closed when you leave the locked
vehicle.
■
Keep the windows clean to ensure the correct functionality of the electric
windows.
■
Always close the windows 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
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 and other dirt can get into the vehicle and the wind noise is more at cer-
tain speeds.Opening/closing the windowsFig. 48

When the buttons are disabled in the rear doors, the warning light  in the
button E lights up.
After switching the ignition off, it is still possible to open or close the windows
for approx. 10 minutes.
After the driver's or passenger's door is opened the operation of the window is
only possible with the button A
» Fig. 48 , in which case they have to be press-
ed or pulled for approx. 2 seconds.
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.
WARNINGIf the rear seats are accommodating people who are not completely inde-
pendent, e.g. children, it is recommended that for safety reasons the but-
tons in the rear doors are disabled with the button E

This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Windscreen wipers and washers
78
Headlight cleaning system

The windscreen wipers and the wash system only operate if the ignition is
switched on and the bonnet and boot are closed.
Winter setting of the windscreen wiper
If the windscreen wipers are in rest position, they cannot be folded out from
the windscreen. For this reason we recommend adjusting the windscreen wip-
ers in winter so that they can be folded out from the windscreen easily.
▶ Switch on the windscreen wipers.
▶ Switch off the ignition.
The windscreen wipers remain in the position in which they were when
switching off the ignition.
The service position can also be used as a winter position » page 237.WARNING■
Properly maintained windscreen wiper blades are essential for clear visi-
bility and safe driving » page 198, Wiper blades .■
Do not use the windscreen washer system at low temperatures, without
heating the windscreen beforehand. The window washer fluid could other-
wise freeze on the windscreen and restrict the view to the front.
CAUTION
■ In cold temperatures and during the winter, check before switching on the
ignition that the wiper blades are not frozen to the windscreen. If the wind-
screen wipers are switched on when the blades are frozen to the windscreen,
this may damage both the blades and windscreen wiper motor!■
Carefully peel frozen wiper blades off the pane.
■
Remove snow and ice from the windscreen wipers before driving.
■
If the windscreen wipers are handled carelessly, there is a risk of damage to
the windscreen.
■
Do not switch on the ignition if the front wiper arms are retracted. The wiper
arms could damage the paint of the bonnet.
■
If there is an obstacle on the windscreen, the wiper will try to push away the
obstacle. The wiper stops automatically after 5 attempts to eliminate the ob-
stacle, in order to avoid a damage to the wiper. Remove the obstacle and
switch the wiper on again.
Note
■ Each time the ignition switches off for the third time, the position of the
windscreen wipers changes. This counteracts an early fatigue of the wiper rub-
bers.■
The windscreen washer nozzles for the windscreen are heated when the en-
gine is running and the outside temperature is less than approx. +10 °C.

WARNINGAutomatic wiping during rain is only a support. The driver is not released
from the responsibility to set the function of the windscreen wipers man-
ually depending on the visibility conditions.
Note
■ If the operating lever is in the position 2 or 3 and the speed of the vehicle
drops below 4 km / h, the wiping speed is reduced. The original wiping speed is
restored step by step when the speed of the vehicle exceeds 8 km/h.■
The rear window is wiped once automatically if the windscreen wipers are on
when reverse gear is selected.

The outside temperature is about -12° C to +39° C. 
78Using the system

When transporting cargo the following the instructions must be adhered to
▶ When transporting heavy objects, the driving characteristics change due to
the shift in centre-of-gravity. The speed and style of driving must be adjus-
ted accordingly.
▶ The cargo is stowed in the luggage compartment. To prevent this from mov-
ing it should be secured with suitable lashing straps to the lashing eyes or
secured with fixing nets.
▶ Distribute loads as evenly as possible.
▶ Place heavy objects as far forward as possible.
▶ The transported items must be stowed in such a way that no objects are able
to slip forward on sudden driving or braking manoeuvres – risk of injury!
▶ Tyre pressure is to match the load.
▶ When transporting loads in the luggage compartment that has been en-
larged by folding the rear seats forward, ensure the safety of the passengers
transported on the other rear seats .
In the event of an accident, even small and light objects gain so much kinetic energy that they can cause severe injuries.
The magnitude of the kinetic energy is dependent on the speed at which the
vehicle is travelling and the weight of the object.
Example: In the event of a frontal collision at a speed of 50 km/h, an object
with a weight of 4.5 kg produces an energy, which corresponds to 20 times its
own weight. This means that it results in a weight of approx. 90 kg “ ”.
Luggage compartment light
The warning light turns on when tailgate is opened.
The warning light turns off when the tailgate is closed.
If the boot lid is open and the ignition switched off, the light will extinguish
automatically after around 10 minutes.
The luggage compartment illumination using the removable lamp » page 114.WARNING■
Never exceed the maximum permissible load of the respective fasteners,
nets, hooks etc. Heavy objects were not secured sufficiently – risk of injury!■
If the cargo is tied down with unsuitable or damaged lashing straps, inju-
ries can occur in the event of braking manoeuvres or accidents.
■
Loose cargo can be thrown forward during a sudden manoeuvre or in case
of an accident and can injure the occupants or other road users.
■
Loose cargo could hit a deployed airbag and injure occupants – danger of
death!
CAUTION■ Never exceed the maximum permissible load of the respective fasteners,
nets, hooks etc. - these could be damaged.■
