Instruments and controls/Defogger and deicer
Defogger and deicer
1) Rear window defogger
2) Outside mirror defogger (if equipped)
3) Windshield wiper deicer (if equipped)
The defogger and deicer system is acti- vated only when the ignition switch is in
the “ ON ” position.
To activate the defogger and deicer
system, press the control switch that is
located on the climate control panel. The
rear window defogger, outside mirror
defogger and windshield wiper deicer are
activated simultaneously. The indicator
light on the control switch illuminates while
the defogger and deicer system is acti-
vated.
To turn them off, press the control switch
again. They also turn off when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ ACC ” or “ LOCK ” /
“ OFF ” position.
The defogger and deicer system will
automatically shut off after approximately
15 minutes. If the rear window and the outside mirrors have been cleared and the
windshield wiper blades have been deiced
completely before that time, press the
control switch to turn them off. If defrost-
ing, defogging or deicing is not complete,
you have to press the control switch to
turn them on again.
It is possible for the defogger and deicer
system to be set to continuous operation
mode by a SUBARU dealer. Consult your
SUBARU dealer for details. Also, for
models with a multi function display, the
setting can be changed using the display.
For details, refer to “ Multi function display ”
