Pushing the "FRONT WINDSHIELD" button turns on the
defroster–linked air conditioning. This is to clean up the front
view more quickly.
Pushing the "FRONT WINDSHIELD" button once again
returns the air flow mode to the last one used.
Do not use the "FRONT WINDSHIELD" button during
cooled air operation in extremely humid weather. The
difference between the temperature of the outside air
and that of the windshield could cause the outer surface
of the windshield to fog up blocking your vision.
