What does MIST mean?

[McCourtney]

MIST refers to the front wiper switch, which means a single wipe. Here is an introduction to the related content: 1. Manual activation: Indicates manual activation. Push the entire wiper lever upward once toward the front of the car, and the wiper will wipe once. 2. Varies by model: Depending on the vehicle model, the markings on the wiper stalk may differ slightly. For example, "HIGH" might also be labeled as "HI," "MIST" might be labeled as "1x," or completely replaced with icons. Below is extended information about the INT function: 1. Abbreviation: It stands for "interim," meaning intermittent. 2. Intermittent operation: On the wiper, it means intermittent operation, wiping every few seconds. The interval can be adjusted. The white blocks decrease in size from top to bottom. Below INT, there is an arrow. Rotate the dotted circle of INT, and the arrow points to the white block. From top to bottom, the interval time increases.

Driving for over a decade, foggy days are the most annoying! That white misty condensation on the windshield is especially dangerous. When I encounter this situation, I immediately turn on the AC and blast cold air directly at the glass—it clears up instantly. Warm air works too, but the effect is slower. Leaving a small gap in the window to allow air circulation can also prevent fogging. Here’s another handy trick: mix dish soap with water and wipe the inside of the glass—it can keep fog at bay for several days. If the rearview mirror gets foggy too, turn on the electric heating function, and it’ll clear up quickly. On rainy days, remember to apply anti-fog spray in advance—safety is more important than anything. Don’t wipe the glass with a cloth while driving; those two seconds of distraction could lead to an accident.

Last time I was driving in heavy rain, the windshield suddenly fogged up, leaving me with a white blur and unable to see anything. I was so scared that I immediately turned on the hazard lights and pulled over. Using the wipers was completely useless because the fog was forming on the inside. Later, an experienced driver taught me to press the defogging button and turn the airflow to maximum, directing the vents at the glass—the fog disappeared in two minutes. This kind of mist is most likely to appear on highly humid days and becomes more noticeable when there are more people in the car. Now, I apply some waterproof glue on the door frame seals to improve the tightness, which helps prevent fog from creeping in. If that doesn’t work, I’ll just replace the glass with an anti-fog film for a permanent solution.

New drivers, don't be scared by the mist—you've actually learned this in physics class. When the temperature difference between inside and outside the car exceeds 5 degrees, condensation forms on the windows. In summer, turning on the AC during rain, and in winter, using the heater can balance the temperature difference. Remember to activate the external circulation to bring in dry air—it's much quieter than opening the windows. If the rear window defroster is broken, get it fixed immediately; a small cost ensures greater safety. When the fog is thickest, slow down to below 30 km/h. I keep a mini defogger plugged into the cigarette lighter—it's more reliable than wiping the glass in emergencies.
