Wiper
OAD048579N
This indicator displays which wiper speed
is selected using the wiper control.
Heated Steering Wheel turned off (if
equipped)
This message is displayed if you turn off
the heated steering wheel.
For more details, refer to “Heated
Steering Wheel” in chapter 5.
Low washer fluid (if equipped)
This warning message is displayed if
the washer fluid level in the reservoir is
nearly empty.
Have the washer fluid reservoir refilled.
Low fuel
This warning message is displayed if the
fuel tank is almost out of fuel.
When this message is displayed, the low
fuel level warning light in the cluster will
come on.
It is recommended to look for the nearest
fueling station and refuel as soon as
possible.
Engine Overheated (if equipped)
This warning message is displayed
when the engine coolant temperature
is above 248°F (120°C). This means that
the engine is overheated and may be
damaged.
If your vehicle is overheated, refer to
“Overheating” in chapter 8.
Check headlight (if equipped)
This warning message is displayed if the
headlights are not operating
properly.
In addition, if a specific lamp(turn signal
lamp etc.) is not operating properly, the
warning message according to a specific
lamp (turn signal lamp etc.) is displayed.
A corresponding bulb may need to be

Convenience Features5-80
Windshield Washers
ODN8059209K
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. The spray and wiper operation
will continue until you release the lever. If
the washer does not work, you may need
to add washer fluid to the washer fluid
reservoir.
WARNING
When the outside temperature is below
freezing, ALWAYS warm the windshield
using the defroster to help prevent
the washer fluid from freezing on the
windshield and obscuring your vision
which could result in an accident and
serious injury or death.
NOTICE

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

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

[ To prevent possible damage to the
wipers and washer system, use anti-
freezing washer fluids in the winter
season or cold weather.

Blade Inspection
Contamination of either the windshield
or the wiper blades with foreign matter
can reduce the effectiveness of the
windshield wiper functionality. Common
sources of contamination are insects,
tree sap, and hot wax treatments used
by some commercial car washes. If the
blades are not wiping properly, clean
both the window and the blades with a
clean cloth dampened with washer fluid.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the wiper blades,
arms or other components, do not:

[Use gasoline, kerosene, paint
thinner, or other solvents on or near
them.

[ Attempt to move the wipers
manually.

[ Use non-specified wiper blades.
Information
Commercial hot waxes applied by
automatic car washes have been known to
make the windshield difficult to clean.
Blade Replacement
When the wipers no longer clean
adequately, the blades may be worn or
cracked, and require replacement.
NOTICE

[In order to prevent damage to the
hood and the wiper arms, the wiper
arms should only be lifted when in
the top wiping position.

[ Always return the wiper arms to the
windshield before driving.
NOTICE
The use of a non-specified wiper blade
could result in wiper malfunction and
failure.
