Windscreen defrosting and defogging

Do not use the defrost level position during cooling operation in extremely humid weather. The outer surface of the windscreen may fog and reduce visibility, causing a collision that results in serious injury or death.

Set the mode selection button to the face level position and lower the blower speed.

  • For maximum defrost performance, set the temperature control switch to the highest temperature setting and the blower speed control to the highest setting.

  • If warm air to the floor is desired whilst defrosting or defogging, select the floor defrost position.

  • Before driving, clear all snow and ice from the windscreen, rear window, outside rear-view mirrors, and all side windows.

  • Clear all snow and ice from the bonnet and air inlet to improve heating and defroster efficiency and to reduce the probability of fogging up the inside of the windscreen.
