Rear Window Defrost Indicators

Rear Window Defrost

These are Rear Window Defrost Indicator symbols. It is seen in primarily in  yellow/amber/orange when the rear window defroster is active as a reminder. In most cases, the defroster will turn itself off after a pre-set period of time.

  • Before continuing, are you sure this is your symbol?? If yes, then read on below.
  • Otherwise, you can return to our main Picture Symbols page and scan again!

The warning color (yellow/amber/orange) is used in case the defroster remains on too long, which can harm the system. The symbols match the image found on the defroster switch.

However, Rivian has chosen to add the red indicator telling the driver the defroster is on and a white version when it is turned off. The last one is truly, unimaginatively useless.
