Note:
The rear window defroster uses a large
amount of power. To keep the battery
drain to a minimum, turn off the de­
froster as soon as the window is clear.
The defroster is automatically turned
off after a maximum of 20 minutes of
operation. Heavy accumulation of
snow and ice should be removed
before activating the defroster.
If several power consumers are turned
on simultaneously, or the battery is
only partially charged, it is possible that
the defroster automatically turns itself
off. When this happens, the indicator
lamp inside the switch starts blinking.
As soon as the battery has sufficient
voltage, the defroster automatically
turns itself back on.
