Which Button to Press for Fog Inside the Car?
2 Answers
Fog inside the car can be cleared by pressing the front window defogger button. Fog is caused by the temperature difference between the cold outside and warm inside, where the interior temperature is higher than the exterior, leading to fog formation. Methods to prevent fog inside the car include: 1. Using specialized defogging products before driving; 2. Utilizing the air conditioning's cooling and dehumidifying function to reduce air humidity. Solutions for fog inside the car are: 1. Turn on the front window defogging mode, increase the fan speed, turn on the temperature switch, and lower the temperature; 2. Activate the one-touch defogging function; 3. Open windows to enhance air convection, reduce the temperature difference inside and outside the car, and weaken the conditions for fog formation; 4. Spray defogging agent evenly on the glass surface and wipe it clean with a dry towel; 5. Make a DIY defogging agent with dish soap and spray and wipe it before traveling.
When I first drove by myself, I got really nervous when there was fog inside the car and didn't know which button to press. Actually, most cars have a dedicated defogging button with an icon resembling a small fan or a square with airflow symbols, usually located on the air conditioning control panel. Pressing it will automatically activate the fan and air conditioning dehumidification, directing airflow toward the windshield to clear the fog. I recommend turning on the external circulation mode to let dry air in for better results. In winter when humidity is high, slightly increasing the temperature can also speed up the defogging process. Avoid wiping the glass with a wet cloth, as it can make the fog worse. Keeping the windows clean and regularly replacing the air filter can help prevent fogging. This simple and practical trick is easy for new drivers to learn.
