Infrared windshield technology has been
used on your vehicle to minimize solar
heating of the vehicle interior. This technol-
ogy also reduces the ability of electronic
devices to transmit and receive through the
windshield, which will impair their perfor-
mance and operating range.
If you want to place an electronic toll col-
lection device or entry/pass tags behind
the windshield, please use the area marked
in the illustration. This area is clearly visible
from inside the vehicle.
Standard holder*

dard and lock in place by turning 901.
