"Uitzicht vlak voor de bus en bereikbaarheid zonwering
...
- Op voorruit en linker zijruit, goed bereikbaar en instelbaar, goed werkende *fixatie* en ontgrendeling"
This term appears in a measurement report for a city bus and relates to the positioning/functioning of a sun visor for drivers. Should 'fixatie' be understood here to mean 'lock'? RSVP.
Cheers,
R.
