Defogging and Defrosting
On cool, humid days, use defog HEATER/DEFROST to
keep the windshield and side windows clear. Use defrost
to remove fog or ice from the windshield quickly in
extremely humid or cold conditions.
Press the DEFROST button to select DEFROST. Adjust
the fan speed by pressing the fan button up or down. If
you select DEFROST from AUTO, the system will
control the fan speed. The temperature also needs to be
adjusted by turning the TEMP knob.
RECIRCULATION is not available in the defrost mode.
The air conditioning will run when in the defrost mode.
Rear Window Defogger
The lines you see on the
rear window warm the
glass. Press this button to
turn on the rear defogger.
With it, the rear window
and both outside rearview
mirrors are heated.
The system will automatically shut off after 10 minutes
of use. If you turn it on again, the defogger will operate
for about five minutes. However, if your vehicle is
traveling above 30 mph (48 km/h) the system will not
shut off. You can also turn the defogger off by turning
off the ignition or by pressing the button again.
Do not attach a temporary vehicle license, tape or decals
across the defogger grid on the rear window.
NOTICE:
Don’t use a razor blade or something else sharp
on the inside of the rear window. If you do, you
could cut or damage the warming grid or the
integrated rear window antenna, and the repairs
wouldn’t be covered by your warranty.
