Rear window ventilation setting

Something I found by accident in my 2011 model - just pull the rear window switch briefly to the second position and the window will go down about an inch and a half and stop. Could not find this in the manual.

An animal shouldnt go in a car at all is my thinking then you dont have a problem.

I'm more concerned about venting the rear for the dog when I'm driving along as I never leave my dog in the car

But thanks for jumping to the wrong conclusion Rolling Eyes Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

I fully agree with you. When, for example, we take our caravan away for a break or a holiday we give the dog a map and make her walk to wherever we are going.

What a strange line of thought. You surely meant, 'a dog shouldn't be left unattended in a car, especially in warmer weather'?

As well as ventilation dropping the rear windows using this "facility" also stops the buffeting that occurs at some speeds when you drive with front windows down.
