There is no anti-trapping protection during initialization.

Initialization is performed on the power window switch of the relevant door.

Requirements for correct initialization:

Initialization comprises:

An initialization must be performed:

In the event of malfunctions, e.g. no one-touch control function, no opening or if available no comfort function is possible

After adjustment work on the convertible top
After replacement of seals

Erasure of initialization:

Open door window glass fully
Actuate power window switch in "Open" position (second switch position) and hold down for between 15 and 20 seconds

This erases initialization of the power window, anti-trapping protection and toll function are inactive.

Check whether one-touch control (toll) function is inactive, otherwise repeat procedure.
