Pinching Prevention Function
The driver’s window is equipped with the
pinching prevention function. The function
detects a foreign object caught in the win-
dow while being closed by the AUTO-UP
feature by which you can close the window
without holding the window switch in the
UP position, and stops the window closing
to prevent damage.
NOTE:
Even if you cannot close the window by the
AUTO-UP feature because there may be
something wrong with the pinching preven-
tion function, you can close the window by
holding the window switch in the UP posi-
tion.
If you drive in extreme off-road condition,
the pinching prevention function may oper-
ate accidentally because the window react
to vehicle jolting.
The Pinching Prevention Function Ini-
tialization
When you disconnect and re-connect the
battery or replace the fuse, the function will
be deactivated. In this condition, the
AUTO-DOWN feature will be deactivated,
while the AUTO-UP feature may remain
being activated. The pinching prevention
function needs to be initialized.
To initialize the pinching prevention func-
tion, use the following procedure:
1) Turn the ignition switch to the “ON”
position or press the engine switch to
change the ignition mode to “ON”.
2) Open the driver’s window fully by hold-
ing the window switch in the DOWN
position.
3) Close the driver’s window by holding
the switch in the UP position, and keep
holding the switch for 2 seconds after
the window fully closed.
4) Check the driver’s window if the auto-
DOWN/UP feature work.
If the AUTO-DOWN/UP feature would not
work after initialization, there might be
something wrong with the pinching preven-
tion function. Have your vehicle inspected
by an authorised Maruti Suzuki workshop.
WARNING
To avoid injuring an occupant by win-
dow entrapment, be sure no part of
the occupant’s body such as hands
or head is in the path of the electric
window when closing it.
The function may not detect the
object depending on size, hardness,
and position of the object caught by
the closing window.
CAUTION
• The pinching prevention function
does not act while you are holding
the window switch in the “Up”
position.
• The pinching prevention function
may not detect an object caught in
the window just before the window
is fully closed.
WARNING
Whenever you disconnect and recon-
nect the battery or replace the fuse,
the pinching prevention function
needs to be initialized.
The pinching prevention function will
not be activated until the initialization
is complete.
