CAUTION!
Use care when washing the inside of the rear window
to prevent damage to heating elements. Use a soft
cloth and a mild washing solution, wiping parallel to
the heating elements. Also, keep all objects a safe
distance from the window to prevent damaging the
heating elements.
A push-button type switch is located on the right
side of the control below the A/C (Snowflake)
button. Pressing the switch will turn on the Rear Window
Defroster. A light above the Rear Window Defroster
symbol will illuminate to indicate the Rear Window
Defroster is On. Pushing the button again will turn the
Rear Window Defroster Off prior to the time-out. The
Rear Window Defroster will turn off automatically after
15 minutes after the first push, 10 minutes after the
second push all within the same ignition cycle. To
prevent excessive battery drain, use the rear defroster
only when the engine is running.
