REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER (R)
Ensure that the ignition is in the 3 (ON) position. Press the control to
clear the rear window of thin ice and fog. The LED will illuminate.
The rear window defroster turns off automatically after 10 minutes, or
when the ignition is turned to the 1 (OFF/LOCK) position. To manually
turn off the defroster before 10 minutes have passed, push the control
again.
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 and
will not be covered by your warranty.
CABIN AIR FILTER
Your vehicle is equipped with a cabin air filter, which is located just in
front of the windshield under the cowl grille on the passenger side of the
vehicle.
The particulate air filtration system is designed to reduce the
concentration of airborne particles such as dust, spores and pollen in the
air being supplied to the interior of the vehicle. The particulate filtration
system gives the following benefits to customers:
•Improves the customer’s driving comfort by reducing particle
concentration
•Improves the interior compartment cleanliness
•Protects the climate control components from particle deposits
For more information regarding the interval at which you should replace
the cabin air filter, refer to yourscheduled maintenance information.
For additional cabin air filter information, or to replace the filter, see an
authorized dealer.
