Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high humidity
(moisture) condensing on the cool window glass. This
can be minimized if the climate control system is
used properly. There are two modes to choose from to
clear fog or frost from the windshield.
-
(Defog): Use the defog mode to clear the windows
of fog or moisture and warm the passengers. This
setting delivers air to the floor and windshield outlets.
0
(Defrost): Use the defrost mode to remove fog
or frost from the windshield more quickly. The system
automatically controls the fan speed if defrost is selected
from the AUTO mode. If the outside temperature is
40°F (4°C) or warmer, the air conditioning compressor
automatically runs to help dehumidify the air and dry the
windshield. The air conditioning indicator light blinks
three times if the compressor is turned off while in
this mode.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog from the rear window.
<
(Rear): Press this button to turn the rear window
defogger on or off. An indicator light above the
button comes on to show that the rear window defogger
is activated.
If driving below 50 mph (80 km/h), the rear window
defogger turns off about 15 minutes after the button is
pressed. If additional warming time is needed, press the
button again.
If the vehicle’s speed is maintained above 50 mph
(80 km/h), the rear window defogger remains on once
the button is pressed.
If the vehicle has heated outside mirrors, the surface of
the outside mirrors will also heat when the rear
window defogger is activated. See Outside Power
Mirrors on page 2-41.
Notice: Do not use a razor blade or sharp object to
clear the inside rear window. Do not adhere
anything to the defogger grid lines in the rear glass.
These actions may damage the rear defogger.
Repairs would not be covered by your warranty.
