Once you press the button, its supposed to melt the ice and defog your windscreen in a matter of minutes, and alleviates the need to go out with a scraper after parking your car to clear the windscreen.

I had this feature on my MC wagon in Germany. It was great since my parking area was in the open but off the street. Those icy and snowy mornings were a bit of a challenge at times since you still had to get in the car (with iced up door seals and snow falling from the roof into the door/onto the seat) to start the engine and press the windscreen heater button. The new features coming with remote start/control via Iphone should help with that one.
