What can I do about a fogged or iced up windscreen or rear window in my MINI?

If the windscreen in your MINI is fogged or iced up, activate the max defrost function. The automatic air conditioning sets the blower output to the maximum level and directs the air mass flow to the defrost vents. Depending on the standard and optional equipment of your MINI, the windscreen heating is also switched on. When the rear window is fogged, activate the rear window heating by pressing the "rear window heating" button while the engine is running. The rear window heating switches off automatically after some time.
