Power Mirror Defogger Auto Operation Function

When the outside air temperature is 41 °F (5 °C) or below and the ignition switch is turned to ON (II), the left and right power mirror defoggers automatically turn on. The power mirror defogger auto operation function is controlled by the driver's and front passenger's MPCS units.

- When the driver's and front passenger's MPCS units receive a signal that the outside air temperature is 41 °F (5 °C) or below from the climate control unit, the driver's and front passenger's MPCS units automatically turn on the left and right power mirror defoggers within ten seconds after the ignition switch is turned to ON (II).

- Power mirror defogger output automatically stops in ten minutes as a result of its timer.

- If the driver's and front passenger's MPCS units receive a rear window defogger/power mirror defogger switch input signal from the climate control unit during power mirror defogger output, the driver's and front passenger's MPCS units shut off the auto operation function immediately.

- While the power mirror defogger auto operation function is operating, the rear window defogger does not automatically operate.

- The power mirror defogger auto operation function stops temporarily when any power windows or power mirrors operate during power mirror defogger output.
