SLIDING SUN VISOR
Sliding blinds
Visor struts
The blinds are extended on the sun
visor struts.
Fold the visor downwards, to protect
against dazzle to the face.
If dazzle is coming from the side
windows, detach the visor from its
housing above the centre of the
windscreen and pivot it to the side. Do not attach or suspend heavy
objects on the slide rail of the sun
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 monitor-
ing mirror.
They are two non-refl ective areas of
the athermic windscreen.
CHILD MONITORING 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
(toll card payments, etc.). A child monitoring mirror is installed
above the interior rear view mirror.
This allows you to monitor the vehi-
cle’s rear passengers, or it can facili-
tate 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.

 Slide the blind on the visor to the
desired position by pushing the
area A . The visors are fi tted with a lock-
ing system on their central housing
when the blind is rolled up. To
remove the visor from its central
housing or reposition it, it must be in
a vertical position.
