Rear Window Defogger
If your vehicle has this feature, the lines you see on the
rear window warm the glass. The rear window defogger
uses a warming grid to remove fog from the rear window.
If your vehicle has a sliding rear window, you will not
have a rear window defogger, however, you will
still have a rear window defogger button to activate the
heated outside rearview mirrors, if equipped.
<(Rear):Press this button to turn the rear window
defogger on or off. An indicator light in the button
will come on to let you know that the rear window
defogger is activated.
The rear window defogger will automatically turn off
several minutes after the button is pressed. Pressing the
button while the defogger is running can also turn off
the defogger.
W(Mirror):If your vehicle is equipped with heated
mirrors, press this button to activate them. On some
vehicles without a rear window defogger, this button will
be present to control the outside heated mirrors.
Notice:Do not use anything sharp on the inside of
the rear window. If you do, you could cut or damage
the warming grid, and the repairs would not be
covered by your warranty. Do not attach a temporary
vehicle license, tape, a decal or anything similar to
the defogger grid.

Pressing this button also cancels the auto recirculation
feature. To resume the auto recirculation function, press
the AUTO button. Each time the vehicle is started, the
system will revert to the auto recirculation function.
If you select recirculation while in defrost, defog or oor,
the light in the button will ash and then go out to let you
know that this is not allowed. This is normal and helps to
prevent fogging.
When the weather is cool or damp, operating the system
in recirculation for extended periods of time may cause
fogging of the vehicle’s windows. To clear the fog, select
either defog or front defrost.
You may also notice that the A/C compressor will run
while in recirculation mode. This is normal and helps to
prevent fogging.
9(Off):Press this button to turn off the entire climate
control system. Outside air will still enter the vehicle,
and will be directed to the oor. This direction can
be changed by pressing the mode button. The
temperature can also be adjusted using either
temperature knob. Press the up or down arrows on
the fan switch, the defrost button, the AUTO button,
or the air conditioning button to turn the system on
when it is off.
