Heated Windshield (Where Fitted)



Heated Windshield (Where Fitted)

When the engine is running and the heated windshield is selected on, the ATC (automatic temperature control) module illuminates the LED (light emitting diode) above the switch and energizes the heated windshield relay attached to the passenger end of the fascia cross tube. If not already active, the ATC (automatic temperature control) module also activates the A/C (air conditioning) compressor and the blower, and sets air distribution to windscreen. After 10 minutes (when ambient temperature is -15 degrees C degree F degree F) or above) or 17 minutes (when ambient temperature is less than -15 degrees C (5 degrees F)), the ATC (automatic temperature control) module extinguishes the LED (light emitting diode) and de-energizes the heated windshield relay. After the heater times out or is switched off, the timer in the ATC (automatic temperature control) module is reset to zero.
