ELECTRIC WINDOWS

The electric windows are equipped with an anti-crush safety system. The door nodes that manage the system are capable of detecting the presence of an obstacle whilst the glass is closing by means of the anti-crush sensors. In this case, the system interrupts the travel of the window and reverses the direction immediately.

The windows work:

• when the ignition key is in the ACC or MAR position,
• if the ignition key is in the AVV position, the manual controls for the windows are interrupted, except for the sequential commands in progress,
• for a minute after the interruption of the +ACC,
• until the closing, after the opening of the driver''s door if this intervenes before the end of the timed preriod.

The vehicle may be equipped with electric windows at the front only or at the rear as well.

Versions with electric front windows

Driver''s door.

There are two switches in the driver''s door inner trim which operate the opening and the closing of the front windows when the ignition is switched ON.

• A - left front window opening/closing;
• A - right front window opening/closing

To open or close the window, press the button; when it is released, the window stops in whatever position it is in at the time.

The driver''s window is equipped with the "continuous automatic operation" device (which works when the engine is running) for both lowering and raising the window. Simply press the button briefly to start the travel which continues automatically. the window will stop in the desired position by pressing the button a second time.

Passenger door.

There is a button for controlling the relevant window in the door trim.

Versions with electric front and rear windows

Driver''s door.

There are five switches in the driver''s door inner trim which operate the opening and the closing of the front and rear windows and the child lock button when the ignition is switched ON.

• A - left front window opening/closing;
• B - right front window opening/closing;
• C - left rear window opening/closing;
• D - right rear window opening/closing;
• E - inhibition of operation of electric window buttons located on the rear doors and (where fitted) inhibition of rear sun roof control buttons.

To open or close the window, press the button; when it is released, the window stops in whatever position it is in at the time.

The driver''s window is equipped with the "continuous automatic operation" device (which works when the engine is running) for both lowering and raising the window. Simply press the button briefly to start the travel which continues automatically. the window will stop in the desired position by pressing the button a second time.

Passenger door.

There is a button A in the door trim for controlling the relevant window.

Sliding doors.

• A - window opening/closing

Press the button to activate the window opening/closing control.

The commands sent via the buttons on the driver''s door take priority over all the others.

Electric structure of electric windows

The diagram below illustrates the management of the electric windows.

• 1 control switches on driver''s door
• 2 Driver''s Door Node (NPG: acquires the status of the switches, transfers them to the body computer node, operates the electric windows motor)
• 3 electric window switch on left rear door
• 4 electric window motor on left rear door
• 5 Body Computer Node (NBC: authorizes the operation of the front electric windows and manages the operation of the rear electric windows, manages the lighting of the control buttons)
• 6 Steering Wheel Node (NVO: incorporates the high frequency receiver and manages the signal reception)
• 7 control switch on the passenger door
• 8 Passenger Door Node (NPP: acquires the status of the switch, transfers it to the body computer node, operates the electric windows motor)
• 9 electric window switch on right rear door
• 10 electric window motor on right rear door
• 11 Remote control

Electric front windows function

Actions during ascent or descent of the windows:

• pressing one of the opening or closing buttons for the driver or passenger side front windows,
• transmitting the status of the driver or passenger electric window switch to the Door Node via the voltage level,
• detection via the associated door node,
• transmitting the status of the electric window switch by the door node to the NBC,
• transmitting the command by the NBC to the door node for the operation of the front window involved.

The anti-crush function is managed internally by the door modules.

The front passenger electric windows switch lighting remains on when the command is sent from the driver''s side unit.

Operation in case of faults

If there is a fault with the VAN, the local control for the electric windows allows the:

• enablement of the driver''s electric window control from the driver''s door,
• enablement of the passenger electric window control from the passenger door,
• the automatic cycles in progress at the front electric windows are completed.

Electric rear windows function

Glass operation controlled by rear switch

Pressing the opening or closing button for one of the rear switches (if they are not disabled because the child locks are switched on) is detected by the window opening mechanism electronics of the corresponding door.

The door electronics activate the window involved in the desired direction.

Glass controlled by driver''s door lock

Pressing one of the opening or closing buttons for the rear windows is detected by the Driver''s Door Node (NPG).

The NPG transmits the status of the electric window switch for the door concerned to the NBC.

The NBC momentarily inhibits the rear controls and sends the movement command for the rear window on the basis of the states received and sends the window movement signal to the door involved for the same length of time as the switch is pressed for.

The command from the driver''s door unit takes priority over commands from the rear and cannot be inhibited. Conversely, an opening or closing command sent from the rear door unit can be interrupted by a command from the buttons on the driver''s door.

Inhibition of rear controls and child locks (joint LV REAR / TO / Locks)

The inhibitor switch is incorporated in the driver''s unit and is shared by the child locks.

The door modules transmits the inhibition/authorization request for the rear electric windows to the NBC:

• in the case of inhibition, the NBC cuts off the supply to the rear switches,
• in the case of authorization, the NBC supplies the rear switches.

Rear glass operating conditions

The rear windows work:

• when the ignition key is in the +ACC or +MAR position,
• in the case of a move to +AVV, the electric window commands are interrupted except for sequential controls in progress,
• for a minute after the interruption of the +ACC
• if the user sends a command from a rear switch, it will be interrupted when the timed period expires if a manual command is involved and, on the other hand, will continue through until the end of a sequential command is involved.
• until the closing, after the opening of the driver''s door if this intervenes before the end of the timed preriod.

The operation of the electric rear windows is inhibited when a sliding door is opened.

Operation in case of faults

If there is a fault with the VAN, the local control for the electric windows allows the:

• interruption of the rear passenger electric windows control coming from the driver''s door,
• the automatic cycles in progress at the rear electric windows continue until the end,
• rear electric windows command from the rear doors authorized, without taking into account the previous state of the inhibition command.

If there is a problem, the windows cannot be closed automatically if the vehicle has been locked using the remote control.

Central window closing function

When the central locking command is received from the remote control:

• activation, if necessary, of the network by the NBC (appearance of the +VAN),
• the NBC sends the command for the central locking of the windows to the front door modules and interrupts the authorization of the electric rear windows (electric rear windows switch power supply),
• the NBC sends the command for the automatic closing of the left rear window and the right rear window.

If there is a problem, if the NBC does not receive the command from the steering column switch unit it supposes that there has been no request to move the window and, as a result, there is no central control.

Vehicle ventilation function

Press the remote control unlocking button a second time, at the time of unlocking or turning the lock a second time at the time of unlocking, activates the ventilation function (windows completely lowered).

In this case:

• the NBC sends a command for the automatic opening of the windows to the front door modules, then carries out an automatic descent control for the left and right rear windows.

If there is a problem, if the NBC does not receive the command from the steering column switch unit it supposes that there has been no request to move the window and, as a result, there is no central control.
