General
Laminated glass
The glass is reinforced which pro-
vides better protection against
break-ins and improved sound insu-
lation in the passenger compartment.
The windscreen and the side windows* have
laminated glass.
Water and dirt-repellent coating*
The front side windows are treated
with a coating that improves the view
in difficult weather conditions. Maintenance,
see page 351.
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 102.
Heat-reflecting windscreen*
Areas where IR film is not applied.
Dimensions
A 47 mm
B 87 mm
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 the
windscreen with no heat-reflecting film (see the
highlighted area in the above illustration).
Power windows
Driver's door control panel.
Switch for electric child safety locks* and
disengaging rear power window buttons,

WARNING
Check that none of the rear seat passengers
is in danger of becoming trapped in any way
when closing the windows from the driver's
door.
