Auto Defogging System (ADS) (only for automatic climate control system) (if equipped)
The ADS operates when the heater or air conditioning is on.
The indicator illuminates when the ADS senses the moisture on the inside of the windshield and operates.
The ADS addresses excess moisture on the inside of the windshield in stages. For example if auto defogging does not defog inside the windshield at step More Details, it tries to defog again at step More Details.
