Overriding the pinch protection
If dirt, ice or similar create so much resist-
ance that the pinch protection engages in
the front electric windows (the window
cannot be closed), the pinch protection can
be temporarily disengaged and the window
closed.
1 Make sure the ignition is in position 3.
2 Press and hold the button on the
driver’s door while operating the window
in question.
3 Close the window in question.
The pinch protection will be active the next
time a window is operated.
Calibration
The front electric windows should be cali-
brated if automatic closing does not work or
if the battery has been disconnected. The
pinch protection will not work if the windows
are not calibrated

Calibration is performed as follows:
1 Close the doors.
2 The car must be running at idling speed.
The battery charger must not be con-
nected to the car’s battery during cali-
bration.
3 Open the window fully, the button must
be kept depressed the whole time.
4 Close the window fully, the button must
be kept raised the whole time and for
approx. 1 second after the window has
closed.
5 Open the window fully, the button must
be kept depressed the whole time and
for approx. 1 second after the window
has fully opened.
6 Close the window fully, and keep the
button raised until the calibration is
confirmed with a "chime".
Repeat steps 3-6 for the windows which
require calibration.

when it is closed without pinch protection.
