What does the rearview mirror heating button icon look like after rain?

The icon for the rearview mirror heating button is shaped like three upward-curving arrows inside a square frame. Here is more information about the rearview mirror heating button: 1. There are generally two designs: one is integrated with the electric rearview mirror adjustment switch cluster, and the other is located on the air conditioning control panel. 2. After pressing the button, the heating elements behind the rearview mirror glass will quickly heat up to a fixed temperature within a few minutes, typically between 35-60 degrees Celsius. Steam will rise from both left and right rearview mirrors, and water droplets on the mirror surface will gradually evaporate and shrink due to the rising temperature, while fog will slowly dissipate. This achieves the effect of heating the mirror, defogging, and defrosting. 3. If the rainfall is particularly heavy, its effectiveness may decrease and the impact may not be very noticeable.
I haven't been driving for long, and often encounter the problem of blurry rearview mirrors after rain. The rearview mirror heating button is quite recognizable - the icon usually depicts a small square frame with several curved lines inside, resembling heat radiating outwards. Sometimes it includes a water droplet symbol indicating it's specifically for rainy conditions. In my car, it's located on the control panel near the steering wheel. Just press it to activate the heating function, and the water droplets will evaporate within minutes. During rainy drives, I usually turn it on in advance to maintain clear visibility. I think new car owners should familiarize themselves with this button's location, as it's not as conspicuous as headlights but can prevent rear-end collisions in critical moments. Remember, safety comes first.
