Heated windscreen*, rear window and door mirrors
The function is used to remove ice and misting from the windscreen, rear window and door mirrors.
One press of the respective button starts the heating. The light in the button indicates that the function is active. Switch off the heating as soon as the ice/misting is cleared in order not to load the battery unnecessarily. However, the function is switched off automatically after a certain time.
