Laminated glassThe glass is reinforced which pro-
vides better protection against
break-ins and improved sound insu-
lation in the passenger compartment.
The windscreen and other windows* have lami-
nated glass.
Water and dirt-repellent coating*Windows are treated with a coating
that improves the view in difficult
weather conditions. Maintenance, see
page 337.
IMPORTANT
Do not use a metal ice scraper to remove ice
from the windows. Use the defroster to
remove ice from the mirrors, see
page 104.
Heat-reflecting windscreen*
Areas where IR film is not applied.
Dimensions

The windscreen is equipped with a heat-
reflecting film (IR) that reduces the solar heat
radiation into the passenger compartment.
The positioning of electronic equipment, such
as a transponder, behind a glass surface with
heat-reflecting film may affect its function and
performance.
For the optimal function of electronic equip-
ment, it should be positioned on the part of thewindscreen with no heat-reflecting film (see the
highlighted area in the above illustration).

closing interruptions the pinch protection will
be forced and the automatic function deacti-
vated for a short while, now it is possible to
close by continually holding the button pulled
up.
