Reset rear windows?

The driver's side rear window on my '22 SL55 is not forming a tight seal with the main window. It forms a seal and then backs up. I know on prior cars I've owned there were ways to reset this. Does anyone know if this can be done without a trip to the service department (which, given the subzero temps and snow we've had here in Chicago, would need to wait anyway)?

It's designed to back up when opening the door to loosen the seal; not much, just a few millimeters. Still, when the door is shut, it should seal tightly, and it's not doing that.
