DEF

Système [qui] chauffe rapidement le liquide lave-glace sur demande, ce qui permet aux conducteurs d'éliminer prestement et efficacement glace, neige, poussière, insectes et toute autre substance susceptible de salir, d'embuer ou de recouvrir le pare-brise.

OBS

Le dispositif utilise la chaleur libérée par la batterie du véhicule. Il peut être actionné d'une seule touche installée au tableau de bord. Quarante-cinq secondes plus tard, des jets chauds sont dardés sur le pare-brise.
