Rear Window Defroster - Mercedes-Benz 560 SL 1986 Owner's Manual

Rear Window Defroster

With engine running, press symbol
side of rocker switch to turn on,
press left side to turn off.
When activating the rear window
defroster, the indicator lamp inside
the switch will come on.
Note:
The rear window defroster uses a
large amount of power. To keep the
battery drain to a minimum, turn off
the defroster as soon as the win­
dow is clear. The defroster is auto­
matically turned off after a maxi­
mum of 20 minutes of operation.
Heavy accumulation of snow and
ice should be removed before acti­
vating the defroster.
If several power consumers are
turned on simultaneously, or the
battery is only partially charged, it
is possible that the defroster auto­
matically turns itself off. When this
happens, the indicator lamp inside
the switch starts blinking. As soon
as the battery has sufficient vol­
tage, the defroster automatically
turns itself back on.
