Glass and light

Yes, a stone chip damages the top layer of glass. Even the smallest vibration can cause a crack to form, which can then spread across the entire front windscreen.

That depends on the type of damage. If the chip is in the driver’s field of vision, is less than 10 cm away from the edge of the windscreen and is larger than a 2 euro coin, you are not allowed to continue driving for safety reasons. With smaller chips that are outside the driver’s field of vision, you can continue driving for the time being. However, we recommend contacting a workshop regardless of the type of chip, so the damage can be repaired as soon as possible – for your safety and that of other road users.

That depends on the type of damage. The service employees in your workshop will tell you if a replacement or repair is required. In principle, a chip can only be sealed if its diameter is smaller than 5 mm, it’s located at least 10 cm away from the edge of the windscreen and is not in the driver’s field of vision. If the damage is more extensive, the windscreen has to be replaced.

The windscreen is essential for ensuring the stability of your vehicle and therefore your safety. So, even small-scale repairs to the windscreen should be performed by trained professionals.

Yes, scratches to the windscreen impair visibility. They can be particularly dangerous in the dark as the dazzle effect of oncoming traffic increases significantly.

Compared with halogen headlights, lights containing LEDs are more efficient, more durable and, thanks to individually controllable mini LEDs, offer more design options.

With LEDs, you benefit from almost constant light intensity and lose as little luminosity as possible.

By using the adjustment dial to the left of the steering wheel, you can adjust the angle of inclination of your headlights. In most vehicles, the angle of inclination of the low beam is between 1 and 1.2°; for the main beam, it’s between 2 and 2.5°. This allows you to illuminate your field of vision without dazzling oncoming traffic. Are you unsure as to whether your headlights are at the right angle? The service employees will take care of your concern and perform the required adjustment.
