(h) Rear window and outside rear view
mirror defogging
To turn the electric rear window and
outside rear view mirror defogger on,
push the button above.
The “ENGINE START STOP” switch must
be in IGNITION ON mode.
The thin heater wires on the inside of the
rear window and the heater panels in the
outside rear view mirrors will quickly clear
the surface.
Keep your hands off the mirror faces when
the system is on.
The indicator light is on when the defogger
is operating.
CAUTION
When the outside rear view mirror de-
foggers are on, do not touch the out-
side surface of the rear view mirror as
it can become very hot and burn you.
The defoggers will automatically turn off
after 15 to 270 minutes. The operation
time changes according to the ambient
temperature and vehicle speed.
If further defrosting or defogging is de-
sired, simply actuate the switch again.
When the surface has cleared, push the
button once again to turn the defogger off.
Continuous use may cause the battery to
discharge, especially during stop−and− go
driving. The defogger is not designed to
dry rain water or to melt snow.
If the outside rear view mirrors are heavily
coated with ice, use a spray de −icer before
operating the system.
NOTICE
DWhen cleaning the inside of the
rear window, be careful not to
scratch or damage the heater wires
or connectors.
DTo prevent the battery from being
discharged, turn the switch off
when the engine is not running.
