Use Climate Controls Correctly (AC + Defrost)
5
Description
The air conditioning system dehumidifies air. Combining it with the defrost setting quickly clears fog by circulating dry air over the windshield.
Recipe/Instructions
- Select the 'Defrost' setting on your climate control panel (usually directs air to the windshield).
- Turn the temperature control towards warm (optional, but warm air holds more moisture).
- Crucially: Turn ON the Air Conditioning (AC) button, even if you have the heat on. The AC compressor removes moisture from the air before it blows onto the windshield.
- Set the fan speed to high initially.
- If possible, select 'Fresh Air' intake (not recirculation) to bring in drier outside air.
- This combination provides the fastest way to defog windows using the car's systems.
What makes the Dish Special
N/A - Leverages the car's built-in systems optimally for rapid defogging by actively dehumidifying the air.
