■ To prevent the windshield from fogging up
● Do not use during cool air operation in extremely humid weather. The differ-
ence between the temperature of the outside air and that of the windshield can cause
the outer surface of the windshield to fog up, blocking your vision.
■ To prevent burns
● Do not touch the rear view mirror surfaces when the outside rear view mirror defog-
gers are on.
● Vehicles with windshield wiper de-icer: Do not touch the glass at lower part of the
windshield or to the side of the front pillars when the windshield wiper de-icer is on.
■ Humidity sensor (if equipped)
■ To prevent battery discharge
Do not leave the air conditioning system on longer than necessary when the engine is
off.
● Do not place anything on the instrument
panel which may cover the air outlets. Other-
wise, air flow may be obstructed, preventing
the windshield defoggers from defogging.
In order to detect fog on the windshield, a sen-
sor which monitors the temperature of the
windshield, the surround humidity, etc., is
installed. (→P. 445)
Follow these points to avoid damaging the sen-
sor:
● Do not disassemble the sensor
● Do not spray the glass cleaner on the sensor
or subject it to strong impacts
● Do not stick anything on the sensor
