Operating the windows

You can use the power switches in the door panels to operate the windows. The switches in the driver door can control all of the windows in your car, while both the front and rear passenger switches are limited to controlling their respective windows.

The power windows may still work for a while after you exit the car. Keep this in mind when leaving the car unattended.

 Warning

Always consider the safety risks while operating the windows. The car's moving parts can cause injury to children or other occupants, as well as damage to objects.
  • Make sure you have a clear view of the windows you're operating.
  • Do not allow children to play with the window controls.
  • Never leave children alone in the car.
  • Never put an object or body part through an open window, even if the car's electrical system is fully disconnected.

All of the windows have built-in pinch protection to help prevent injuries. Be sure to read the relevant information on pinch protection in its separate section of the manual.

To operate the windows, a key must be present inside or near the car. If you use a key card, or if your key tag is discharged, you need to place it on the card reader to be able to operate the windows.

 Note

Situations where the windows cannot be opened

  • The windows cannot be opened at speeds above approximately 180 km/h (112 mph) but they can be closed.
  • At very low temperatures, the windows might freeze in place and you won't be able to operate them.
Window controls on the driver door panel
Press the window symbol to switch between controlling the front and rear windows. The current window selection is indicated by the lights next to the symbol.

Use the switches to open or close the windows:

  • A slight push or pull allows you to manually operate the window until you release the switch.
  • If you push or pull the switch fully, the window automatically moves even if you release the switch. Stop it by moving the switch in the opposite direction.

 Tip

Noise reduction

One way to reduce wind noise when the rear windows are open is to also open the front windows slightly.

Child lock

You can disable the rear window controls in settings. This prevents rear seat passengers from operating the windows.

 Note

If automatic window movement or pinch protection isn't working properly, you may need to reset the windows. You can learn how to do this in a separate section of the manual.
