  "textContent": "A method for electrically controlling a functional element with electrically controllable optical properties enclosed in a glazing unit includes controlling the optical properties by a control unit connected to two transparent flat electrodes of the functional element, and applying a voltage by the control unit between the flat electrodes and the polarity of the voltage is periodically changed. The voltage has a trapezoidal profile and by the control unit an increasing electrical voltage is applied for charging the functional element, the electrical voltage increasing to a first peak value, the electrical voltage is reduced from the first peak value to a final voltage for discharging the functional element, the functional element is charged with the increasing electrical voltage with reversed polarity, wherein the electrical voltage increases to a second peak value, the electrical voltage is reduced from the second peak value to the final voltage for discharging the functional element.",
