How to activate the rear defogger?
YourMechanic
Whether your Accord has a manual A/C, auto A/C or a built-in navigation system, activating the rear defogger is done in the same way.
Find the button on the dash that says “Rear” and has a picture of the defogger, and press it.
The defogger will automatically come on with the button pressed, and will automatically turn off after 10 minutes to a half hour (it depends on temperature).
