Yesterday was my first frosty morning in my new 2016 Crosstrek. It includes a rear window defroster, heated wiper blade area on the front windshield, and the side mirrors have build in heating elements. I assumed that all of these activate by simply pressing the defrost button in the center console. (The manual certainly implies this.) Doing so activates the rear window defroster, but apparently nothing else. The side mirrors have icons for the defrost indicator, however these do not illuminate when the defrost button is pressed. I assume that they should illuminate when activated. I saw frost evaporating from the rear window, but that is all.
Anyone with a 2016 Premium or Limited, or anyone with the winter package, do you see the icons on the side mirror illuminate when you press the defrost button? I suspect this is malfunctioning on my new Crosstrek but would appreciate insights from anyone who has one that is known to be working correctly. Thank you!
