-A- | Driver's window |
-B- | Front passenger's window |

Child safety switch
When the safety switch -S- Fig. 1 is pressed in, the symbol in the switch lights up. The following functions are deactivated:
- Window switches in rear doors
- Rear switches for the panorama sun roof*
The rear controls are deactivated on vehicles with an air conditioner for the rear cabin*. In this mode, "---" appears on the display of the rear A/C control console and the air conditioner for the rear cabin can only be operated from the front control console Link.
- Always take the key with you when leaving the vehicle - even if you only intend to be gone for a short time. This is especially important if children are left in the car. They might otherwise be able to start the engine or use power-operated equipment such as the electric windows - this could lead to injuries. The window switches are only deactivated when the driver's door or the front passenger's door is opened.
- Always be careful when closing the windows. Careless use of the electric windows can cause severe injuries.
- When locking the vehicle from the outside, make sure that nobody is inside the vehicle, as the windows cannot be opened from the inside in an emergency.
Note
The windows can be operated for about ten minutes after the ignition has been switched off. The window switches are only deactivated when the driver's door or the front passenger's door is opened.
