CAUTION
■To prevent the windshield from fogging up
●Do not use during cool air operation in extremely humid weather. The dif-
ference between the temperature of the outside air and that of the windshield can
cause the outer surface of the windshie ld to fog up, blocking your vision.
■To prevent burns
●Do not touch the rear view mirror surfaces when the outside rear view mirror
defoggers are on.

erwise, air flow may be obstructed, pre-
venting the windshield defoggers from
defogging.
