A ‘magic’ button defrosts a car’s windshield in seconds – and some drivers had no idea

Winter mornings are often dreaded by motorists. Who has never cursed a frozen windshield, a scraper in hand, freezing fingers, and a ticking watch? However, a simple and quick solution is often right before our eyes, without us really knowing it.
The magic button: where is it hiding?

Most modern cars are equipped with a front demister button, designed to quickly defrost the windshield. This button activates a blower that combines warm air and air conditioning, effectively removing frost.

How to use it?
Start your car engine.
Set the temperature to maximum.
Press the button dedicated to front demisting.
Wait a few seconds: the frost melts as if by magic.
This system heats the windshield from the inside while causing fogging, making the effort of scraping useless.
