Description and operation
Safety Function of Power Window |
When driver door power window auto-up switch is operated, safety function is
activated.
1. |
Safety function condition
When the force of 100N (using the 10N/mm spring) is detected while the
window is rising, the window is pulled down.
|
2. |
Length of window reversing (except holding the auto-up switch)
– |
When jamming is detected within the range between 4mm and 250mm
from the top of the B pillar
→ the window is pulled down to 300mm from the top of the B pillar.
|
– |
When jamming is detected within the range of over 250mm from
the top of the B pillar.
→ the window is pulled down to the lowest position if the total
length of jammed object plus 50mm is below the window’s lowest position.
|
|
3. |
The length of window moving downward (holding the auto-up switch)
– |
When jamming is detected while pulling the auto-up switch.
→ Window moves downward by 25mm from jamming position
|
– |
Auto-up function is not available for 5 seconds after the above
operation.
→ When pulling the auto-up switch, the manual-up function is
activated (no safety function).
|
|
4. |
The area with the safety function not applied
Safety function is not available within the 4mm range from the top of
the window frame.
|
How to initialize the safety power window
1. |
Initializing of Battery Connection
When the battery power is removed for over 5 minutes, safety power window
switch needs the initializing.
(1) |
Power window operation before initializing
–
|
Manual-Up/Down function is available
|
–
|
Auto-Up/Down function is not available
(If the Auto-up/down switch is being pushed, the manual
up/down function is operated.)
|
|
(2) |
Initialization
Close the window in window open position, and holding the switch
in window full close position over the 0.2 second.
(If start the closing the window in window full close position,
initializing could be failed.)
|
(3) |
If initialize the safety power window in jamming status, could
occur below conditions.
–
|
Safety function is not available
|
|
(4) |
Window position memorizing hall sensor is used to identify the
window position and motor operation direction. ECU detects the uppermost
position of the window and sets the position as ‘0’
|
(5) |
Deinitialization
ECU is deinitialized if the following conditions are met. After
deinitialization process, Auto-up and safety function are not activated.
Deinitialization conditions
a. |
Repeating window downward movement 15 times in a row.
|
b. |
Power supply is suspended while the motor is in operation.
|
c. |
Driver seat door opens, IGN Off with the window glass
positioned in Hard Stop -> IGN On within 2 seconds -> within
5 seconds with IGN On, entering manual down switch signal
3 times -> Deinitialization completed (if power is not on
in 2 seconds, or the operation to be performed in 5 seconds,
the deinitialization process shall be repeated from the
beginning.)
|
|
|
2. |
Initializing of fail safe mode
Prevention of overheated motorSoftware overheating prevention function
is used to prevent the motor from overheating (but, EEPROM data shall be
saved in ECU).
(1) |
If the window moved by compulsion and motor have a problem, power
window switch could be entering the fail safe mode for user’s safety.
|
(2) |
Power window operation in fail mode
–
|
Auto/Manual-Down function is available
|
–
|
Auto/Manual-Up function is not available
(When Auto/Manual-up is operated, window is rising by
20mm and stops moving.)
