• Once the windshield is cleared, keeping the air conditioner ON
leads to dehumidified cabin heating/cooling which helps in
keeping windshields and windows clear. Keep the fresh air mode
selected. If required, re-adjust the blower speed and
temperature control knob to maintain comfort. The temperature
of air coming out of the vents should neither be too hot nor too
cold
• Driving the vehicle for long with the air conditioner switched off
may lead to windshield or windows getting misted/fogged up
• Driving the vehicle for long continuously in the recirculation mode
may lead to windshield or windows getting misted/fogged up
• Do not blow cold air on the windshield and windows for long
during humid weather. It could make windshield/windows mist/
fog-up
• When on a long drive during warm humid/rainy weather, once
cabin temperature becomes comfortable, shift to ‘AC LO’ mode,
if using ‘AC HI’ mode earlier. Adjust the temperature knob such
that air coming out of the vents is not too cold. Keep the fresh
air intake mode selected. Shift to any distribution mode other
than defrost mode. This will help in keeping windshields and
windows clear
• For defogging/de-misting/defrosting the side windows at the
front, select either Face or Face-Foot mode while directing air
flow towards windows by adjusting the louvers of side vents. All
other settings should be kept same as advised for windshield
defogging/de-misting/defrosting
• For heating the vehicle interior while windshield defogging/de-
misting/defrosting, select the Foot-Defrost mode. All other
settings should be kept same as advised for windshield
defogging/de-misting/defrosting
• For quickly defogging/de-misting/defrosting the outside of the
windshield, it is advisable to operate the windshield wiper/
washer for a few times intermittently
• If snow has deposited on the windshield, use an ice scraper to
remove the ice deposited before using the wiper
• In freezing weather, warm the windshield with the defroster
before using the windshield washer. Also use a washer fluid with
anti-freezing properties. This will help prevent the washer fluid
from freezing on your windshield
• A dirty/contaminated windshield would make misting/fogging
worse. Always keep the inside and outside of the windshield
clean
• Reduced air flow because of a clogged HVAC filter or any other
obstructions in the air flow path may lead to in-adequate
defogging/de-misting/defrosting performance. If the air flow
seems to have considerably reduced, get the filter replaced
immediately. The air flow path should be kept free of
obstructions
• Reduced cooling performance from the air conditioner may lead
to inadequate defogging/de-misting/defrosting. If the cooling
effect seems to have dropped considerably, get the air
conditioning system checked by an Authorized Mahindra Dealer
