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).

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.

WARNING

If the starter battery is disconnected, the

automatic opening and closing function

must be reset to work properly. A reset

must take place for pinch protection to

work.

Automatic dimming

Bright light from behind is automatically
dimmed by the interior rearview and door mir-
rors. Automatic dimming is always active
while driving, apart from when gearbox
reverse position is selected.

When sensitivity is changed there is no

ming, but the change takes place gradu-
ally.

The interior rearview mirror contains two sen-
sors - one forward facing and one rearward
facing - that work together to identify and
eliminate dazzling light. The forward facing
sensor detects ambient light, while the rear-
ward facing sensor detects the light from vehi-
cle headlights behind.

For the door mirrors to be equipped with auto-
matic dimming, the interior rearview mirror
must also be equipped with automatic dim-
ming.

Rearview and door mirrors (p. 170)

If the sensors are obscured by e.g. parking
permits, transponders, sun visors or
objects in the seats or in the cargo area in
such a way that light is prevented from
reaching the sensors, then the dimming
function of the interior rearview and door
mirrors is reduced.
