Pinch protection for windows and
sun blinds
All power windows and sun blinds* have
pinch protection which is deployed if they are
blocked by any object while opening or clos-
ing.
In the event of blocking, the movement stops
and then reverses automatically to approx.
50 mm (approx. 2 inches) from the blocked
position (or to full ventilation position).
The car contains several different windows,
glass panes and mirrors. Some of the win-
dows in the car are laminated.
The windscreen has laminated glass, and lami-
nated glass is available as an option for certain
other glass areas. Laminated glass is rein-
forced, which provides better protection
against break-ins and improved sound insula-
tion in the passenger compartment.
The panoramic roof* also has laminated glass.
It is possible to force pinch protection when
closing has been cancelled, e.g. when ice is
formed, by continuing to press the control in
one and the same direction.
If any fault arises with the pinch protection, a
reset sequence can be tested.
The symbol is shown on the windows where the
glass is laminated1.
