General
Laminated glass
The glass is reinforced which pro-
vides better protection against
break-ins and improved sound in-
sulation in the passenger compart-
ment. The windscreen and side win-
dows* have laminated glass.
Water and dirt-repellent coating*
The front side windows and/or door
mirrors are treated with a coating that
improves the view in difficult weather condi-
tions. Maintenance, see page 210.
Door mirrors
In certain weather conditions, the function of
the dirt-repellent coating is improved if the
door mirror defrosters are used.
Heat the door mirrors:
• if they are covered with ice or snow
• in heavy rain and dirty road conditions
• if they are misted.

IMPORTANT
Do not use a metal ice scraper to remove
ice from the windows. The water and dirt-
repellent coating could be damaged. Use
the defroster to remove ice from the mirrors.
An ice scraper could scratch the mirror
glass!
WARNING
Check that none of the rear seat passen-
gers is in danger of becoming trapped in
any way caught when closing the windows
from the driver’s door.
