Auto defogging reduces the probability of fogging up the inside of the windshield by automatically sensing the moisture on the inside of the windshield.
The auto defogging system operates when the heater or air conditioning is on.
This indicator illuminates when the auto defogging system senses the moisture on the inside of the windshield and operates.
If more moisture is in the vehicle, the automated steps operate as follows:
Step 1 : Operating the air conditioning
Step 2 : Outside air position
Step 3 : Blowing air toward the windshield
Step 4 : Increasing air flow toward
the windshield
