SLIDING SUN VISOR
Sliding blinds
Visor rails

visor rails.
Fold the visor downwards, to protect
against dazzle to the face.

housing above the centre of the
windscreen and pivot it to the side.

blind.
TOLL CARD/CAR PARK TICKET WINDOWS
Facility for affi xing toll cards and/or
car park tickets.
These windows are located on each
side of the base of the child surveil-
lance mirror.
They are two non-refl ective areas of
the athermic windscreen.
Child surveillance mirror
The athermic windscreen limits
heating of the passenger compart-
ment by reducing the effects of the
sun's rays (ultra-violet). It consists of
a refl ective layer, which also blocks
certain radio-electric signals (auto-
matic toll card payments, etc.). A child surveillance mirror is fi tted
above the rear view mirror. This al-
lows you to monitor the vehicle’s
rear passengers, or it can facilitate
conversation between the front and
rear passengers without the need to
move the rear view mirror.
It can be folded away to eliminate
dazzle. Sliding blinds are provided for your
protection against bright sunlight.
They can be adjusted manually.

sition by pushing at A

The visors are fi tted with a lock-
ing system on their central housing
when the blind is reeled in. To re-
move the visor from its central hous-
ing or to reposition it, it must be in a
