In Case Of Emergency - Break Glass?

I’d be surprised if a Prius has laminated side glass windows.
Yes a spring-loaded device can break non-laminated glass easily and discretely. I know this for a fact living in the SF Bay Area.

 

The non-Prime owners manual says the windows, except for the windshield, are tempered glass. I've attached the relevant page from the owner's manual.

 

I just checked. My Limited AWD has laminated front windows and windshield.

SM-S901U ?

 

Do you think the XLE and Limited have the same glass components? I guess I can read thru the manual at done point.

 

They do not. Strangely enough, all three trims levels have different front door glass. The LE also has a different windshield than every other trim including the SE. All rear door glasses and the hatch glass are the same.

I don't know what the differences are between the front door glasses. I suspect the difference in the LE windshield is just the size and shape of the black section around the rear view mirror.

 

Thanks. The windshield is one of my worries brought on by the person who came on the test drive with me. : }

 

I'm not sure what that ID refers to. The owner's manual that I quoted from was OM_OM47E41U_(U).

 

I think it's a hardware guessing game automatically added to the post and it looks like the app doesn't know exactly what it's looking at.

 

Normally I post from my laptop. Occasionally I post from my phone with Tapatalk which tries to label the device being used. SM-S901U is the product code for a Samsung S22. I use Tapatalk to post so rarely that I haven't bothered to figure out how to turn it off. It used to say " <phone model>", but I guess that's broken now.


edit: Ahh, the confusion is this board's fault. For some reason, it edits out certain word combinations and replaces them with a ?. My sentence above was supposed to say "S e n t from <phone model>", but the board software changed it on its own.

I checked the windows of my Limited this morning. The windshield and large front side windows are labeled 'Lamisafe', whilte the small front side windows (in front of the mirrors) and main rear side windows are labled 'Temperlite'. The samll rear windows have no brand id but have 'Nippon Safety UV ' symbol that does not appear on the other windows. The hatch window is labeled Therlite and has the Nippon Safety UV' designator. I assume the embedded heater lines make this a speacial case.

So, the manual is wrong for the Limited trim version.

 

The manual I got with our 2017 Prime lists all available options for all 3 2017 Prime trims. It was more than a bit confusing in the betginning trying to understand which options our Prime Plus came with and which options belonged to other 2017 trims.
I'd think the manuals are probably less confusing to owner of the higher trim levels, but than again ....
