Anti-Trap Protection

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Jaguar XE and 2017 Jaguar XE. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The anti-trap feature is incorporated for the door glass in both the inching and one-shot modes. If the anti-trap function is activated while a window is closing, the window will reverse by approximately 200 mm (7.9 in)

Each window motor has two Hall sensors to enable the related door module to monitor the motor speed. If the motor speed decreases below a set threshold, indicating an obstruction, the power feed to the motor is reversed so the window goes back down.

If it is still necessary to raise the window, the anti-trap protection can be overridden by attempting to close the window at intervals of less than 10 seconds. On the third attempt the window will move up with anti-trap protection disabled to overcome the obstruction.
