Design and Function

Applies to: 2003–2013, 2013–2016

Windows, general

The windows are tinted and relatively thick to reduce the sound levels in the car.

• Standard 4 mm
• Laminated 5 mm.

The side windows on the XC90 are also laminated (anti smash and grab windows) to provide greater protection against break-ins. This option is market dependent.

Power windows are standard.

PUR boned windows

The windshield, rear side windows and rear windshield are PUR bonded.

PUR bonded windows must be replaced using the method described in VIDA.

Different versions

• There are four different versions of the windshield. Standard, with rain sensor, with IR glass and with IR glass/rain sensor
• There are two versions of the front door window. Standard and Laminated
• There are three different versions of the two windows in the rear door. Standard, Laminated and dark tint
• There are two different versions available for the rear windshield and the rear side window. Standard and dark tint.

PUR bonded windows give the body torsional rigidity, which has a positive impact on:

• Handling and collision safety
• Driving comfort
• Reducing rattles and squeaks
• It also reduces the risk of resonance from the driveline and suspension when cornering.

Cover panel

The cover panel for the antenna module (ATM) is at the rear edge of the roof.

The cover panel is made of plastic.

The cover panel is bonded to the roof using PUR adhesive.
