The rear windshield glass on 4-door vehicles is a fully bonded toughened glass that combines the antenna for the audio unit within the rear defrost grid. The rear windshield glass is available in two versions

  2. Heated with integrated AM/FM antenna and TV antenna

The liftgate window glass on wagon is toughened glass, bonded to a mounting bracket which in turn is bolted to the liftgate hinge assembly. The liftgate window glass can be opened independently of the liftgate, and incorporates an electrically operated liftgate window glass release switch and also the rear wiper pivot arm. The liftgate window glass has integral circuits for the liftgate window glass release switch and the defrost grid. The liftgate window glass must be adjusted for correct body clearance. For additional information, refer to LIFTGATE WINDOW GLASS ADJUSTMENT (501-11 Glass, Frames and Mechanisms)

The heated windshield glass is controlled by the dual automatic temperature control module when the ignition is in the RUN position and the heated windshield glass switch has been activated. Four minutes after activation, the heated windshield glass will automatically switch off. The function is also turned off if the customer deselects before the four minute time has elapsed.

The heated rear windshield glass is controlled by the dual automatic temperature control when the rear windshield glass defrost button is operated. When the switch is operated an indicator in the switch will illuminate indicating that the system is operative. Ten minutes after activation, the heated rear windshield glass will automatically turn off. The function is also turned off if the customer deselects before the ten minute time has elapsed.

The front windows are electrically operated and the rear can be electrically or manually operated. Each electrically powered window can be operated individually or from the main window control switch unless the rear window override switch is active which prevents operation of the rear window control switches.

All switches have two positions enabling either proportional (first position) or automatic ('one-touch' or second position) window activation in the upward or downward direction.

If the system detects an obstacle while the 'one-touch' up function is activated the window will stop motion and reverse to a position at least 200 mm (7.87 in) open this is known as 'bounce back'.

If the system has not been initialized (battery disconnected etc.) then the 'one touch' up function will not be active, however 'one-touch' down will be active.

The rear quarter window glass on wagon is a fully bonded toughened glass that incorporates the antenna for TV and, for Japan, vehicle information and communication system (VICS). The rear quarter window glass is available in three versions

  1. Without antenna.
  2. With integrated TV antenna.
  3. With integrated TV and VICS antenna.
