The thin heater wires on the inside of the

surfaces. An indicator light will illuminate
to indicate the defogger is operating.
On some models, the rear view mirror
defoggers and/or the windshield wiper de−
icer is also operating simultaneously by

Push the switch once again to turn the
defoggers off.
The system will automatically shut off af-
ter the defoggers have operated about 15
minutes.
CAUTION
On some models, since the mirror
surfaces can get hot, do not touch
them when the defogger switch is on.
Make sure you turn the defoggers off
when the surfaces are clear or the wiper
blades have de−iced. Leaving the defog-
gers on for a long time could cause the
battery to discharge, especially
stop−and−go driving. The defoggers are
not designed for drying rain water or for
melting snow.
If the outside rear view mirrors are heavi-
ly 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 or connec-
tors.
