Acura 2009 RDX - Manual (Page 122)

The rear window defogger clears fog,
frost, and thin ice from the window.
Push the defogger button to turn it
on and off. Pushing this button also
turns the mirror heaters on and off.
The indicator in the button comes on
to show the defogger is on.
If you do not turn it off, the defogger
will automatically shut itself off after
a certain period depending on the
ambient temperature. It also shuts
off when you turn off the ignition
switch. You have to turn it on again
when you restart the vehicle.
In cold weather, the defogger will
not automatically shut itself off. You
must manually shut off the rear
window defogger when it is no
longer needed.
The defogger wires on the inside of
the rear window can be accidentally
damaged. When cleaning the glass,
always wipe side-to-side.
Make sure the rear window is clear
and you have good visibility before
starting to drive. Push the button between the center
vents to turn on the hazard warning
lights (four-way flashers). This
causes all outside turn signals and
both indicators in the instrument
panel to flash. Use the hazard
warning lights if you need to park in
a dangerous area near heavy traffic,
or if your vehicle is disabled.
