Anti-Pinch Operation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Nissan Maxima. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Pinch foreign material in the door glass during AUTO-UP operation, and it is the anti-pinch function that lowers the door glass 150 mm (5.9 in) or 2 seconds when detected.
- Encoder continues detecting the movement of power window motor and transmits to the power window switch as the encoder pulse signal while power window motor is operating.
- Resistance is applied to the power window motor rotation that changes the frequency of encoder pulse signal if foreign material is trapped in the door glass.
- Power window switch lowers the door glass for 150 mm (5.9 in) or 2 seconds after it detects encoder pulse signal frequency change.
Operation Condition
When AUTO-UP operation is performed, anti-pinch function does not operate just before the door glass closes and is fully closed.
NOTE:
Depending on environment and driving conditions, if a similar impact or load is applied to the door glass, it may lower.
