We recommend that adjustments are
only made using these buttons when
the vehicle is stationary.
When stationary or while driving, no
objects should be placed around the
transparent blade (or on its cover) to
avoid blocking deployment of the blade
and preventing its correct operation.

(rain and/or snow, bright sunshine, ...)
the head-up display may not be legible
or may suffer temporary inter ference.
Some sunglasses may hamper reading
of the information.
To clean the transparent blade, use a
clean, soft cloth (such as a spectacles
cloth or microfibre cloth). Do not use
a dry or abrasive cloth or detergent or
solvent products as these could scratch
the blade or damage the anti-reflection
coating.
