time. This prevents unintentional
alarms, e.g. in the following situations:

Tilt alarm sensor and interior
motion sensor
Switching off the tilt alarm sensor and
interior motion sensor:
Tilt alarm sensor:
The tilt of the vehicle is monitored. The
alarm system reacts, for example, if
someone attempts to steal the wheels
or tow the vehicle.

Press the button on the remote control
twice consecutively.
>Press the switch up to the resistance
point:
Interior motion sensor:
The indicator lamp lights up briefly and
then flashes continuously. The tilt alarm
sensor and the interior motion sensor
are switched off up to the next unlock-
ing and locking actions.
The window continues to move as
long as you continue to hold the
switch
>Briefly press the switch beyond the

In order for the interior motion sensor
to function properly, the windows and

tance point.
the closing path of the window is not
obstructed whenever it is closed.
Otherwise, an object might not touch
the contact strip in some situations,
with very thin objects, for instance.
You can disable the anti-trapping
mechanism by pulling the switch
beyond the resistance point and hold-
ing it.
When leaving the vehicle, always
remove the remote control and
close the doors, as otherwise children
could operate the windows and injure
themselves etc.<
Because the power windows are sealed
at high pressure to prevent wind noise
when closed, a powerful motor is
required for efficient closing. When
closing the windows, always ensure
that they are not obstructed in any way.
Unsupervised use of these systems can
result in serious personal injury.
Remove the ignition key to deactivate
the power windows whenever you leave
the vehicle. Never leave the keys in the
vehicle with unsupervised children.
Never place anything that could
obstruct the driver's vision on or next
to the windows.<
Safety switch
For the convenience mode via the
remote control or the door lock, refer to
pages 31, 33.
With the safety switch, you can prevent
the rear windows from being opened or
closed via the switches in the rear pas-
senger area, by children, for example.
You can also prevent adjustments of
the power rear-seat backrests from the
rear passenger area, refer to page 48.
Anti-trapping mechanism
A contact strip is integrated into the
inner side of each of the upper window
frame sections. If pressure is exerted
against this contact strip while a win-
dow is being raised, the system will
respond by stopping the window and
then retracting it a small distance.
Always press the safety switch
when children ride in the rear, as
otherwise unchecked closing of the
windows could lead to injuries.<
