defroster, the indicator lamp in the

The rear window defroster uses a large

defroster as soon as the window is
clear.
The defroster is automatically
turned off after a maximum of 20
minutes of operation.
Heavy accumulation of snow and ice
should be removed before activating
the defroster.
If several power consumers are turned
on simultaneously, or the battery is
only partially charged, it is possible that
the defroster will automatically turn
itself off. When this happens, the
indicator lamp inside the switch starts
blinking.
As soon as the battery has sufficient
voltage, the defroster automatically
turns itself back on.
