Ashtray(s) and Cigarette Lighter
Notice:If you put papers, pins, or other
ammable items in the ashtray, hot cigarettes
or other smoking materials could ignite
them and possibly damage your vehicle. Never

Your vehicle may have a cigarette lighter and
ashtray located on the console. The ashtray
is removable and has a cupholder and liner
underneath. To remove the ashtray, lift it up with
the liner and pull it out.
Notice:Holding a cigarette lighter in while it
is heating will not allow the lighter to back
away from the heating element when it is hot.
Damage from overheating may occur to the
lighter or heating element, or a fuse could be
blown. Do not hold a cigarette lighter in
while it is heating.
To activate the cigarette lighter, push it into the
heating element and let go. When the lighter
is ready it will pop out by itself.

Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog from the rear window.
<:The rear window defogger will turn off
automatically after it has been activated for
10 minutes. It can be turned off manually, by
pressing the button again or by turning the ignition
to the OFF position. If additional window clearing
is required, the rear window defogger can be
turned on again for additional window clearing. The
length of defogger operation will increase if the
vehicle is being driven.
If your vehicle has heated outside rearview
mirrors, the mirrors will heat to help clear fog or
frost from the surface of the mirror when the
rear window defog button is pressed. SeeOutside
Power Mirrors on page 124.
Do not drive the vehicle until all the windows
are clear.
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.
