Rear window defroster

The defroster heats the window to remove frost, fog and thin ice from the interior and exterior of the rear window, whilst engine is running.

To activate the rear window defroster, press the rear window defroster button located in the centre facia switch panel.

The indicator on the rear window defroster button illuminates when the defroster is ON.

If there is heavy accumulation of snow on the rear window, brush it off before operating the rear defroster.

The glass heater and/or the rear window defroster may turn off in the below conditions.

- Engine temperature is less than 25° C and the vehicle speed is from 1 ~ 10 km/h with the gear position in “D” or “R” without depressing the accelerator.

If the vehicle stops or the vehicle speed is over 10 km/h, the glass heater and/or the rear window defroster turns on again.

The rear window defroster automatically turns off after approximately 20 minutes or when the ignition switch is turned off.

To turn off the defroster, press the rear window defroster button again.
