N00523700399
The electric rear window defogger can be used when the ready
indicator is illuminated.
The indicator light (A) will come on when you press the elec-
tric rear window defogger switch. Electric current will flow
through the heating wires on the rear window to help clear
away moisture or frost.
After about 20 minutes of operation, the system will shut off
automatically.

press the switch again. The indicator light will go out and the
defogger will turn off.
If you need the defogger for more than 20 minutes, press the
switch again. This will add 20 more minutes.
NOTE
If your vehicle is equipped with heated mirrors, mist can
also be removed from the outside rearview mirrors when
the rear window defogger switch is pressed. (Refer to
“Heated mirror” on page 3-29.)
CAUTION
!
The rear window defogger is not designed to melt
snow. Remove any snow manually before using the
rear window defogger.

indicator is illuminated. Be sure to turn the defogger
switch off immediately after the window is clear to
save on 12V starter battery power.
Do not place stickers, tape, or other items that are
attached with adhesive over the grid wires on the
rear window.
When cleaning the inside rear window, use a soft
cloth and wipe lightly over the grid wires.
