Blind The blind is located in the upper blind box.
Closing:
 Pull blind at the handle (Fig. 41,2) downwards. If the blind is to be com-
pletely closed, it is suspended into the locking devices (Fig. 41,3) situated
on both sides of the window frame.
Opening:
 If the blind is completely closed: Press handle (Fig. 41,2) downwards and,
at the same time, tilt it slightly inward. The blind can be taken out of the
locking devices situated on both sides of the window frame.
 If the blind is in an intermediate position: Pull the handle (Fig. 41,2) slightly
downwards until the locking device releases.
 Use handle to return blind slowly to its initial position.
Insect screen The insect screen is located in the upper blind box.
Closing:
 Pull insect screen at the handle (Fig. 41,1) down and hang it into the
locking devices (Fig. 41,3) situated on both sides of the window frame.
Opening:
 Press handle (Fig. 41,1) downwards and, at the same time, tilt it slightly
inward. The insect screen can be taken out of the locking devices situated
on both sides of the window frame.
 Use handle to return the insect screen slowly to its initial position.
7.6 Skylights
Depending on the model, skylights with or without forced ventilation are fitted
to the vehicle. If a skylight is fitted without forced ventilation, the forced venti-
lation is performed using mushroom-shaped vents.
Fig. 41 Hinged window
 The apertures for forced ventilation must always be kept open. Never
cover or block forced ventilations with objects such as e.g. a winter mat.
Keep forced ventilations clear of snow and leaves.
 The skylights are fitted with a blind or Roman shade and with an insect
screen or folding insect screen. After the latch has been released, the blind
and insect screen automatically spring back to the initial position by tensile
force. In order not to damage the tension mechanics, hold onto the blind or
insect screen and allow it to slowly return to the initial position.
 Do not keep blinds closed over a longer period of time as that can cause
increased material wear.
