You're possibly right about there being a difference with US cars.
I know it should work this way in the UK.
I have two E39's. Both 528i's, and both Owners Handbooks confirm that the
windows should be able to be opened or closed, using buttons 1 and 2.

Ditto with mine - I had a 97 523i and that worked correctly - holding
the button for a an extra couple of seconds would result in the windows
closing. Be interested to know why (it appears) this function doesn't
work on the later car (01 530i).
