● Incorrect use of the electric windows can
result in injury.

Never close the rear lid without observing
and ensuring it is clear, to do otherwise
could cause serious injury to you and third

of a window.
● If the ignition is switched on, the electric
equipment could be activated with risk of
injury, for example, in the electric windows.

is stiff or because of an obstruction, the
window will automatically open again

window could not be closed before at-
tempting to close it again.
