Windshield washer: Press the end
of the stalk:
• briefly: causes the wipers to
swipe three times with washer
fluid.
• a long press and hold: the wipers
and washer fluid will be activated
for up to ten seconds.
Mist wipe: Press the stalk down and release for a single swipe of the
wipers without washer fluid.
Note: Do not operate the washer when the washer reservoir is empty.
This may cause the washer pump to overheat. Check the washer fluid
level frequently. Do not operate the wipers when the windshield is dry.
This may scratch the glass, damage the wiper blades and cause the wiper
motor to burn out. Before operating the wiper on a dry windshield,
always use the windshield washer. In freezing weather, be sure the wiper
blades are not frozen to the windshield before operating the wipers.

washing the front window to clear any excess washer fluid remaining on
the windshield. This feature can be enabled/disabled through the
message center. Refer to Message center in the Instrument Cluster
chapter.
