    Have a look through your windscreen upwards at the sky. If you can see a fine zigzag metal mesh embedded in the glass, you have quckclear, if not, you just have standard glass...

    It seems as if you don't have an owners manual. If so, you can download one from this site:

    Alternatively, if you go on Ebay, you can find new printed versions:

    The letter A in a circle stands for Stop/Start, of course! :wink: 

    The heated windscreen button is the one with the curved screen symbol underneath the 'feet' direction, on the climate panel.

    You will also note the same symbol on the top left, next to the rear screen demister, with the word 'Max' on it.  If you press that, the fans go mad, the AC switches on and the vent heating is switched on to clear the inside of the screen as quickly as possible.  It is likely to be more effective using that function for condensation, and keeping the screen-heater function for frost & ice.

    Different names for the same thing.

    Take our advice and download that manual - it'll save a lot of head scratching!!😀
