Rear Window Defroster - Ford F-150 Owner's Manual

Climate Control 161
HEATED WINDOWS AND MIRRORS (IF EQUIPPED)
Heated Rear Window
Note: The ignition must be switched on to use this feature.
Note: If your vehicle is equipped with a sliding rear window, the
defroster does not operate when the window is opened.
Press the button to clear the rear window of thin ice and fog. Press
the button again within 10 minutes to switch it off. It switches off
automatically after 10 minutes, or when you switch the ignition off.
Do not use razor blades or other sharp objects to clean the inside
of the rear window or to remove decals from the inside of the
rear window. This may cause damage to the heated grid lines.
Your warranty does not cover this damage.
Heated Exterior Mirror (If Equipped)
Note: Do not remove ice from the mirrors with a scraper or attempt to
readjust the mirror glass if it is frozen in place. These actions could
cause damage to the glass and mirrors.
Note: Do not clean the housing or glass of any mirror with harsh
abrasives, fuel or other petroleum-based cleaning products.
Note: If your driver side mirror is equipped with the auto-dimming
feature, the glass is thicker than the passenger side mirror and may take
longer to defrost.
Both mirrors are heated to remove ice, mist and fog when the rear
window defroster is activated.
REMOTE START CLIMATE OPERATION (IF EQUIPPED)
The climate control system adjusts the cabin temperature during remote
start.
You cannot adjust the system during remote start operation. Turn the
ignition on to return the system to its previous settings. You can now
make adjustments. You will need to turn certain vehicle-dependent
features back on, such as:
• heated seats
• cooled seats
• heated mirrors
• heated rear window.
