北米Model "A8270BE-B" EDITED: 2019/ 12/ 9
Climate control panel type B and C
1) Models without outside mirror defogger
2) Models with outside mirror defogger
To activate simultaneously the rear win-
dow defogger, outside mirror defogger (if
equipped) and windshield wiper deicer (if
equipped), press the control switch that is
located on the climate control panel. The
indicator light on the control switch illumi-
nates while the defogger and deicer
system is activated.
To turn them off, press the control switch
again. They also turn off when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ACC” or “LOCK”/
“OFF” position.
The defogger and deicer system will
automatically shut off after approximately
15 minutes. If the rear window and the
outside mirrors have been cleared and the
windshield blade rubbers have been
deiced completely before that time, press
the control switch to turn them off.
It is possible for the defogger and deicer
system to be set to continuous operation
mode by a SUBARU dealer. Consult your
SUBARU dealer for details. Also, for
models with a combination meter display
(color LCD), it is possible to set the
defogger and deicer system for the con-
tinuous operation mode. For details, refer
to “Vehicle Setting” FP198.
CAUTION
. To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not operate the
defogger and deicer system con-
tinuously for any longer than
necessary.
. Do not use sharp instruments or
window cleaner containing abra-
sives to clean the inner surface of
the rear window. They may da-
mage the conductors printed on
the window.
NOTE
. Turn on the defogger and deicer
system if the wipers are frozen to the
windshield.
. If the windshield is covered with
snow, remove the snow so that the
windshield wiper deicer works effec-
tively.
. While the defogger and deicer sys-
tem is in the continuous operation
mode:
If the vehicle speed remains at 9
mph (15 km/h) or lower for 15
minutes, the windshield wiper dei-
cer system automatically stops op-
erating. However, the rear window
defogger system and outside mirror
defogger system maintain continu-
ous operation in this condition.
If the vehicle battery voltage
drops below the permissible level,
continuous operation of the defog-
ger system and deicer system is
canceled and the system stops
operating.
