Rear window defroster
The rear window defroster uses a large
amount of power. To keep the battery
drain to a minimum, switch off the

The defroster is automatically deactivated
after approximately 6 to 17 minutes of op-
eration depending on the outside tempera-
ture.
Warning!
Any accumulation of snow and ice should be
removed from the rear window before
driving. Visibility could otherwise be
impaired, endangering you and others.

rear window defroster automatically turns itself
