Rear window defroster
The rear window defroster uses a large
amount of power. To keep the battery
drain to a minimum, switch off the defrost-
er as soon as the rear window is clear. The
defroster is automatically deactivated af-
ter approximately 6 to 17 minutes of oper-
ation depending on the outside
temperature.
Activating
왘 Switch on the ignition (컄 page 36).
왘 Press button F on the automatic cli-
mate control panel (
컄 page 181).
The indicator lamp on the button
comes on.
Deactivating
왘 Press button F (컄 page 181) once
more.
The indicator lamp on the button goes
out.
i
If sunlight enters through a side win-
dow, close mirror cover 2 (if open),
and disengage sun visor from
mounting 1 and pivot sun visor to the
side.
If the sun visor is disengaged from
mounting 1, mirror lamp 3 will
switch off.
Warning! G
Any accumulation of snow and ice should be
removed from the rear window before driv-
ing. Visibility could otherwise be impaired,
endangering you and others.
!
The rear window defroster cannot be
switched on when the retractable hard-
top is open. The indicator lamp will
start flashing if the hardtop is open.
ì•« Close the retractable hardtop.
The rear window defroster can then be
switched on.
!
If the rear window defroster switches
off too soon and the indicator lamp
starts flashing, too many electrical con-
sumers are operating simultaneously
and there is insufficient voltage in the
battery. The system responds automat-
ically by switching the rear window de-
froster off.
As soon as the battery has sufficient
voltage, the rear window defroster au-
tomatically switches back on automati-
cally.
