To turn the electric rear window and outside rear view

The ignition key must be in the ªONº position.
The thin heater wires on the inside of the rear window and

The system will automatically shut off when the defogger has
operated about 15 minutes.

CAUTION!
Since the mirror surfaces high temperatures, keep
your hands off them when the switch is on.
If further defrosting or defogging is desired, simply actuate
the switch again. When the surface has cleared, push the
switch 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 switch.
NOTICE
When cleaning the inside of the rear window, be
careful not to scratch or damage the heater wires.
To prevent the battery from being discharged, do
not operate the defogger continuously longer
than necessary.
