SWITCHES REAR WINDOW AND OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR DEFOGGER, AND WINDSHIELD WIPER DE−ICER SWITCH Vehicles sold in Canada - The windshield wiper de−icers are equipped to deice the windshield wiper blades by operating simultaneously with defogger. The system will automatically shut off when the defogger has operated about 15 minutes. CAUTION Since the mirror surfaces can get hot, do not touch them when the switch is on. 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. To turn the electric rear window and outside rear view mirror defogger on, push the switch. The ignition key must be in the "ON" position. The thin heater wires on the inside of the rear window and the heater panels in the outside rear view mirrors will quickly clear the surface. An indicator light is on when the defogger is operating. If the outside rear view mirrors are heavily coated with ice, use a spray de−icer before operating the switch. 61
