2008 CHRYSLER ASPEN remote control

If the rear wiper is operating when the ignition is turned
OFF, the wiper will automatically return to the Park
position. When the vehicle is restarted, the wiper will
resume operation.
Rear Window Defrosting
A pushbutton type switch is located in the climate
control panel. Press the switch and the rear win-
dow defroster and electric remote control heated mirrors
(if equipped) will turn on. An amber indicator on the
pushbutton will light when the defroster is turned on. A
symbol will be displayed when the defroster is turned on
with an ATC control. Push again to turn off prior to
time-out. The defroster will automatically turn off after
15 minutes. For 10 more minutes of operation, push the
button again. To prevent excessive battery drain, use the
defroster only when the engine is operating.
CAUTION!
Use care when washing the inside of the rear window
to prevent damage to heating elements. Use a soft
cloth and a mild washing solution, wiping parallel to
the heating elements. Also, keep all objects a safe
distance from the window to prevent damaging the
heating elements.
