When stationary or while driving, no
objects should be placed around the
transparent blade (or on its cover) to
avoid inter fering with the movement
of the blade and preventing its correct
operation.
In certain extreme weather conditions
(rain and/or snow, bright sunshine, ...)
the head-up display may not be legible
or may suffer temporary interference.
Certain glasses (sunglasses,
spectacles or polarised lenses) may
hamper reading of the information.
To clean the transparent blade, which
is made of organic glass, 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.
