nL: Pull the windshield wiper
lever toward you to spray washer
fluid and activate the wipers. The
wipers will continue until the lever is
released or the maximum wash time
is reached. When the lever is
released, additional wipes may
occur depending on how long the
windshield washer had been
activated. See Washer Fluid0237
for information on filling the
windshield washer fluid reservoir.
Clear snow and ice from the wiper
blades and windshield before using
them. If frozen to the windshield,
carefully loosen or thaw them.
Damaged blades should be
replaced. See Wiper Blade
Replacement 0243.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the
wiper motor.
Wiper Parking
If the ignition is turned off while the
wipers are on LO, HI, or INT, they
will immediately stop. If the windshield wiper lever is then
moved to OFF before the driver
door is opened or within 10 minutes,
the wipers will restart and move to
the base of the windshield.
If the ignition is turned off while the
wipers are performing wipes due to
windshield washing, the wipers
continue to run until they reach the
base of the windshield.
Compass
The vehicle may have a compass
display on the center stack. The
compass receives its heading and
other information from the Global
Positioning System (GPS) antenna,
Electronic Stability Control, and
vehicle speed information.
The compass system is designed to
operate for a certain number of
miles or degrees of turn before
needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass
display shows CAL, drive the
vehicle for a short distance in an
open area where it can receive a
GPS signal. The compass systemwill automatically determine when a
GPS signal is restored and provide
a heading again.
