SWITCHES

21

If further defrosting or defogging is desired, simply actuate

the switch again. When the surface has cleared, push the

switch once again to turn the defogger off. Continuous use

may cause the battery to discharge, especially during

stop–and–go driving. The defogger is not designed to dry

rain water or to melt snow.

If the outside rear view mirrors are heavily coated with ice,

use a spray de–icer before operating the switch.

NOTICE

S

When cleaning the inside of the rear window, be

careful not to scratch or damage the heater wires.

S

To prevent the battery from being discharged, do

not operate the defogger continuously longer than

necessary.
