Features of your vehicle

Windshield washers

In the OFF position, pull the lever gently
toward you to spray washer fluid on the
windshield and to run the wipers 1-3
cycles.
Use this function when the windshield is
dirty.
The spray and wiper operation will con-
tinue until you release the lever.
If the washer does not work, check the
washer fluid level. If the fluid level is not
sufficient, you will need to add appropri-
ate non-abrasive windshield washer fluid
to the washer reservoir.
The reservoir filler neck is located in the
front of the engine compartment on the
passenger side.

CAUTION

To prevent possible damage to the
washer pump, do not operate the
washer when the fluid reservoir is
empty.

WARNING

Do not use the washer in freezing
temperatures without first warming
the windshield with the defrosters;
the washer solution could freeze on
contact with the windshield and
obscure your vision.

CAUTION

• To prevent possible damage to

the wipers or windshield, do not
operate the wipers when the
windshield is dry.

• To prevent damage to the wiper

blades, do not use gasoline,
kerosene, paint thinner, or other
solvents on or near them.

• To prevent damage to the wiper

arms and other components, do
not attempt to move the wipers
manually.
