Hi All, I've Googled this as much as I can handle, with no answers!

I have just bought my niece a VW Fox (2010) and cannot for the life of me figure out how to turn on the heated rear screen demister!!! There is no button on the dash, so I am assuming it must be in line with the heater controls being in a particular configuration?? The car unfortunately came with no owners pack/booklets, so pretty stumped!!!

Is it in front of the leccy window switches?

Odd place for it, but I can see two buttons/switches but can’t see what they do.

There is absolutely no way of saying this without sounding sarcastic (so my advance apologies) but I googled it and found this:

"The right-hand stalk houses the windscreen wiper controls, and the switch for the rear screen heater. "



Edit: Ratattak replied between my pressing the button and finding/uploading the image rofl

But do I get extra points for finding a photo of the dirtiest column stalk in history?

Sarcasm welcomed mate, fire away! Haha

I have looked, and the button is indeed on the end of the stalk, but the car I have bought the white emblem has either been rubbed off or overly cleaned off, but I now know! smile
