Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high humidity
or moisture condensing on the cool window glass. This
can be minimized if the climate control system is used
properly. There are two modes to clear fog or frost from
your windshield. Use the defog mode to clear the
windows of fog or moisture and warm the passengers.
Use the defrost mode to remove fog or frost from the
windshield more quickly.
For best results, clear all snow and ice from the
windshield before defrosting.
Select one of these available modes from the right knob.
É(Defog):This mode directs most of the air to the
windshield and the floor outlets. A small amount of air is
also directed to the outboard outlets for the side windows
and to the instrument panel side outlets. When this
mode is selected, the system runs the air-conditioning
compressor. To defog the windows faster, turn the
temperature control knob clockwise to the warmest
setting.

panel side outlets. When this mode is selected, the

Rear Window and Outside Mirror
Defogger
Your vehicle may have a rear window and outside
mirror defogger. This feature only works when
the ignition is turned to ON/RUN.
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog or frost from the rear window. Before
using this feature, clear as much snow from the
rear window as possible.
<(Rear Window Defogger):Press this button to
turn the rear window and outside mirror defogger on
or off. An indicator light in the button comes to show
that the feature is activated.
If your vehicle does not have air conditioning, the rear
window defogger will remain on until the button is
pressed again or the engine is turned off.
If your vehicle has air conditioning, the rear window
defogger will turn off about 10 minutes after the button
is pressed. The defogger can also be turned off by
pressing the button again or by turning the engine off.
Notice:Do not use anything sharp on the inside of
the rear window. If you do, you could cut or damage
the warming grid, and the repairs would not be
covered by your warranty. Do not attach a temporary
vehicle license, tape, a decal or anything similar to
the defogger grid.
