AUTO defogging system
Automatic defogging senses moisture on the inside of the windshield to reduce the likelihood of the windshield fogging up.
![]() OLQ2A085033 |
The AUTO defogging system operates when the heating or air conditioning (A/C) is on.
The AUTO defogging indicator will appear when the system is operating.
If high humidity is detected inside the vehicle, AUTO defogging will engage.
The following steps are performed automatically:
-
The A/C icon indicator will turn on.
-
The air intake control changes to external airflow when the outside temperature is low.
-
The climate mode changes to defrost so that airflow is directed to the windshield.
-
The fan speed increases.
Do not remove the sensor cover located at the top of the windshield glass.
Damage to system parts could occur and may not be covered by your warranty.
-
If you try to turn the A/C OFF when AUTO defogging is on, the indicator blinks 3 times and the A/C will not turn OFF.
-
To maintain the AUTO defogging system’s effectiveness and efficiency, do not select recirculated air intake while the system is operating.
-
When AUTO defogging is operating, the fan speed adjustment lever/icon, temperature adjustment lever, and air intake control icon are all disabled.
