Sun protection for Your Volkswagen Golf 4 Door Sixth Generation (2008-2017)

Sun protection  
Introduction  
In this section you’ll find information about:  
Sun visors  
Windshield made of heat-insulating glass  
WARNING  
Sun visors can reduce visibility.  
Always stow sun visors when not needed to block sun glare.  
Sun visors  
Fig. 79 In the headliner: Sun visor.  
Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS  
Sun visor adjustment  
Flip the sun visor down toward the windshield.  
Lift it out of the retaining clip fig. 79 (A) and swivel it over toward the door.  
Additional sun visor positions  
On some vehicles, you can slide the sun visor towards the rear of the vehicle after swiveling it over to  
the door.  
Vanity mirror and lighting  
A vanity mirror is behind a cover in the sun visor. Your vehicle may also be equipped with a light (1)  
that comes on when you slide the cover (B) open.  
The light goes out when you shut the cover or if you flip the sun visor up again.  
The interior light above the sun visor goes out after several minutes. This helps to prevent  
unnecessary drain on the vehicle battery.  
Windshield made of heat-insulating glass  
Fig. 80 Heat-reflective windshield with communications window (blue shaded area).  
Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS  
Windshields made of insulating glass have a transparent metallic infrared-reflecting coating. There is  
an uncoated area (communications window) just above the inside rearview mirror fig. 80. This  
serves as a communications window for transmitting signals to and from electronic components and  
accessories.  
The uncoated area must not be blocked on the inside or outside or covered with stickers because this  
can cause the electronic components to malfunction.
