ing

When the engine is running, this

Electric operation
From the driver’s position, the

switches on the centre console al-

low the front windows of the vehicle

to be opened and closed.

Driver's window
Sequential control
One touch on A makes the window close or open fully, a second touch stops

the movement.
A long press causes a window movement which stops as soon as you re-

lease.

Anti-pinch on the driver’s window
An anti- pinch device stops the window from rising if it meets an obstacle, and

reverses the direction.
After a battery disconnection or a malfunction, you should re- initialise

the anti-pinch function:
- Press control A to open the window fully, then press to close it again, it will

rise only a few centimetres. Press A again until the window closes fully.
If the window re-opens in an erratic manner when you try to close it, press

control A repeatedly until the window closes fully.

Warning: during this operation the anti-pinch protection is not in force.

Always remove the ignition key when leaving the vehicle,

even for short periods.

If pinching occurs during operations on the electric windows,

you should reverse the movement of the glass. To do this,

press on the control concerned.

When the driver actions the controls of the passenger windows,

he should first make sure that passengers are not obstructing

the closing of the glass.

The driver should ensure that the passengers operate

the electric windows correctly.

ALWAYS PAY ATTENTION TO WHERE CHILDREN

ARE WHEN OPENING OR CLOSING WINDOWS.
