WINDOWS
Windows installed in the passenger
area of the bus have their frames
sealed to the body using a compressed
adhesive backed rubber seal. This seal
forms a water resistant and air resis-
tant barrier between the windows and
the vehicle frame.
Safety glass is used for all bus windows.
Windows in the passenger area also
have standard 26% tint to reduce sun
glare and heat penetration.
Windows on bus doors should be
cleaned on a regular basis to ensure
visibility and passenger safety.
