Introduction
to the subject
Pinch protection can help reduce the risk of pinching injuries
when closing a power window ⇒
. If
one-touch window closing meets resistance or there is something in the way, the
window will stop and go down again.
- Check why the window did not close.
- Try one-touch window closing again.
- If the window meets resistance a second time, so that it stops and goes
back down, one-touch closing is deactivated for about 10 seconds.
- If you pull the power window button up all the way and hold it during this
10 second interval, the window will close without pinch protection⇒
.
Closing the window without pinch protection
- Try to close the window again within 10 seconds by holding the switch.
Pinch protection is turned off for a short distance in the window track!
- If closing takes longer than about 10 seconds, pinch protection is turned
on again. The window stops again if there is resistance.
- If the window still will not close, please see an authorized Volkswagen
dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.

Warning
Without pinch protection, power windows will close with enough force to cause serious
personal injury.
- Always be careful when closing power windows.
- Always make sure that no one is in the way when overriding pinch protection
to close power windows!
- Pinch protection cannot prevent fingers or other parts of the body from
being pressed against the window frame; injuries may result.
