The windshield deicer switch (defogger switch)

operates when the ignition switch is in the ON

position.

The rear window and outside door mirror (if so

equipped) defogger switch operates when the

ignition switch is in the ON position.

The deicer is used to remove ice from the

windshield when a wiper is frozen to the wind-

shield.

The defogger is used to reduce the moisture, fog

or frost on the rear window and outside door

mirror surfaces to improve the rear and side

views.

When the switch is pushed, the indicator light

® illuminates and the deicer operates·for ap-

proximately ¹⁵minutes. The rear window defog-

ger will activate at the same time. After the

preset time has passed, the deicer will turn off

automatically.

When the defogger switch is pushed, the indi-

cator light @ illuminates and the defogger

operates for approximately 1 5 minutes. After the

preset time has passed, the defogger will turn off

automatically.

When the xenon headlight is initially turned on,

its brightness or color varies slightly. However,

the color and brightness will soon stabilize.
