Method and apparatus for providing an automatic defroster function for a surface in a vehicle including a sensor for detecting the presence of mist or ice on such a surface, means for generating control signals, on the basis of the sensor data, for a number of functions in the car for an optimum defroster function on said surface, means for receiving these control signals, and means for receiving control signals from a temperature regulator in the car for a number of functions in the car. A number of the control signals from the temperature regulator are intended to control the same functions as the control signals for the optimum defroster function, and the same means are used for receiving control signals for optimum defroster function and for receiving some of the control signals from the temperature regulator. The means for receiving control signals are intended, in the event of conflict, to select those control signals that are designed to give the best defroster function. |
