1(Defrost): Turn the knob to this setting to direct
most of the air to the windshield with some air directed
to the floor vents. In this mode, the system automatically
forces outside air into the vehicle. The air conditioning
compressor runs unless the outside temperature is at or
below freezing. The air conditioning compressor
operates although the indicator light is not on. The air
conditioning indicator light turns off when defrost is
selected. If the air conditioning button is pressed while
in defrost mode, the indicator light turns on. If the
button is pressed again, the light turns off. Recirculation
cannot be selected while in the defrost mode.
To help clear the windshield quickly, do the following:
1. Select the defrost mode.
2. Select the highest temperature.
3. Select the highest fan speed.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog or frost from the rear window.
< REAR: Press this button to turn the rear window
defogger on or off. An indicator light comes on to
indicate that the rear window defogger is on. Be sure to
clear as much snow as possible from the rear window.
If driving below 50 mph (80 km/h), the rear window
defogger turns off about 15 minutes after the button is
pressed. If turned on again, the defogger only runs
for about seven and one-half minutes before turning off.
The defogger can also be turned off by pressing the
button again or by turning off the engine.
If your vehicle’s speed is maintained above 50 mph
(80 km/h), the rear window defogger remains on once
the button is pressed.
If your vehicle has the remote start feature, the rear
defogger automatically turns on if it is cold outside.
When the vehicle transitions out of the remote start
mode, the rear defogger turns off. See Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) System Operation on page 2-4.
Notice: Do not use anything sharp on the inside of
the rear window. If you do, you could cut or
damage the warming grid, and the repairs would not
be covered by your warranty. Do not attach a
temporary vehicle license, tape, a decal or anything
similar to the defogger grid.
