Then go inside; brace yourself; and kick the edges of the frame & glass. The glass is tempered and will not usually break. It's better to kick from the bottom of the window. Best if you have someone outside to catch the assembly as they sometimes go flying out depending on your kicking technique. Have done this dozens of times.
