Power Window Regulators, Checking Position

After disconnecting and reconnecting the battery, the power window one-touch up/one-touch down feature does not work. Therefore, the electric windows must be positioned again immediately, before a new vehicle is delivered. The vehicle battery must not be disconnected after the electric windows have been positioned.


After disconnecting and reconnecting the battery, pinch protection of the power window regulators will not function. This can cause serious injuries if e.g. fingers are caught in the window!

Perform the following to position the power windows:

The following work sequence is for the front left window. The positioning for the remaining windows is performed by pressing/pulling the respective button in the driver door.

- Switch the ignition on.

- Close all doors and windows.

- Hold left front side-window in position "Close" by pulling and holding switch for longer than 1 second.

- Pull the button again for 1 second. Now when the switch is pressed briefly, the window will lower fully and when the button is pulled briefly, the window will raise fully.

- Turn off ignition.
