not the rear wiper system.

the left of the steering
column on the
instrument panel.
Push the heated washer uid button to activate
the heated windshield washer uid system.
This activation begins four heated wash/wipe
cycles. The rst heated wash/wipe cycle can take
up to 40 seconds to occur, depending on
outside temperature. After the rst wash/wipe
cycle, it can take up to 20 seconds for each of the
remaining cycles. Press the button again to turn
off the heated windshield washer uid system or it
will automatically turn off after four wipe cycles
have been completed.

Here are some things you can check before a trip:
Windshield Washer Fluid:Is the reservoir
full? Are all windows clean inside and outside?
Wiper Blades:Are they in good shape?
Fuel, Engine Oil, Other Fluids:Have you
checked all levels?
Lamps:Are they all working? Are the lenses
clean?
Tires:They are vitally important to a safe,
trouble-free trip. Is the tread good enough
for long-distance driving? Are the tires
all inated to the recommended pressure?
Weather Forecasts:What is the weather
outlook along your route? Should you
delay your trip a short time to avoid a major
storm system?
Maps:Do you have up-to-date maps?
Highway Hypnosis
Is there actually such a condition as highway
hypnosis? Or is it just plain falling asleep at the
wheel? Call it highway hypnosis, lack of
awareness, or whatever.
There is something about an easy stretch of road
with the same scenery, along with the hum of
the tires on the road, the drone of the engine, and
the rush of the wind against the vehicle that
can make you sleepy. Do not let it happen to you!
If it does, your vehicle can leave the road in
less than a second, and you could crash and be
injured.
What can you do about highway hypnosis? First,
be aware that it can happen.
