On a tangentially related note. Do people really use the deFROST feature to deFOG their windows? If the fog is on the inside, turn on AC (note, this is not equivalent to saying "make your car cold"). The AC will reduce the humidity of the air and get rid of the fog (works quite quickly in my experience).
P.S. I am of course aware that heating the windows will also get rid of the fog, it just seems like an unusual solution to me.
- chockablock 5y agoHitting that button on any modern car (like say my 2018 Volvo) will turn the fan on max heat, directed at the windshield and side windows. and also enable the AC. IIRC a 1998 Camry I drove had the same functionality. Confirmed in the ‘98 Camry manual: “Turning the air flow control knob to wind- shield position turns on the defroster− linked air conditioning. At this time, the ”A/C” button indicator comes on regard- less of whether or not the ”A/C” button is pressed in. This is to clean up the front view more quickly.” Like the manual, I have always just called that functionality ‘defrost’, never defog.
