Operating the windows

Updated 2023/09/06

You can use the power switches on the front and rear ends of the centre armrest to operate the 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 operate.
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 a separate section of the manual.

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.

Operating windows from the front seats

Window controls on the front end of the centre armrest

From the front seats, you can control all of the power windows. Press the button with the text REAR to switch between operating the front or rear windows. The button turns amber to indicate that the rear windows are selected. The controls will switch back to the front windows if you press the button again or after a few seconds of inactivity.

Operating the windows from the rear seats

Window controls on the rear end of the centre armrest

From the rear seats, you can operate the rear windows using the switches on the rear end of the centre armrest.

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 moves automatically even if you release the switch. Stop it by moving the switch in the opposite direction.

Tip

Noise reduction

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

Close by locking

If you want to close all the windows at the same time when you lock the car, you can enable this feature in the settings. Look up automatic window closing in this manual for more information.

Controlling windows remotely

You can control the windows remotely in the mobile app for the car.

Locking the rear windows

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.
