VEHICLE CONTROLSVEHICLE CONTROLS
Wiper Operation
The windshield wipers and washers can be used when the vehicle is on.
Front Wipers
Move the wiper lever up or down to the desired
position.
Headlight-Wiper Integration*When the headlights are in the AUTO position,
they automatically turn on when the front
wipers operate several times within a certain
interval. The headlights turn off shortly after
the wipers are turned off, or if there is enough
ambient light.
Intermittent Wipers
When you move the lever to the INT position, 
the wipers operate based on the wiper delay.
Adjust the wiper delay using the adjustment ring.
Rear WiperWhen you shift to Reverse (R) and the front
wipers are activated, the rear wiper activates
even if the switch is off.
ON: Intermittent
OFF

washer.
MIST
OFF
INT: Low speed intermittent
LO: Low speed wipe
HI: High speed wipe
Do not use the wipers when the windshield is dry. The windshield will get 
scratched, or the rubber blades will get damaged.
In cold weather, the blades may freeze to the windshield, becoming stuck. 
Operating the wipers in this condition may damage the wipers. Use the de\
froster
to warm the windshield, or manually clear the windshield of ice and snow
before turning on the wipers.
NOTICE
Adjusting the Seats
Make seat adjustments before driving to ensure the best comfort and safety.
Adjusting the Front Seats
Adjust the driver’s seat as far back as possible while 
allowing you to maintain full control of the vehicle.
You should be able to sit upright and well back in the 
seat, adequately press the pedals without leaning 
forward, and grip the steering wheel comfortably. 
The passenger’s seat should be adjusted so that it 
is as far back from the front airbag in the dashboard 
as possible.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Transport Canada
recommend that drivers allow at least 10 inches (25 cm) between the center of the 
steering wheel and the chest.
Reclining the seat-back too far can result in serious injury or death in a crash.
Adjust the seat-back to an upright position, and sit well back in the seat.
WARNING
Move back and allow sufficient space.

Always sit as far back from the front airbags as possible while maintaining 
control of the vehicle.

MAINTENANCE
Checking the Battery
The battery condition is monitored by the sensor on the negative terminal. If there is 
a problem with the sensor, a message appears on the information display. Have your 
vehicle checked by a dealer.
Check the battery terminals for corrosion monthly.
For jump starting, see page 107.
The battery gives off explosive hydrogen gas during normal operation.
A spark or flame can cause the battery to explode with enough force to kill or 
seriously hurt you.
When conducting any battery maintenance, wear protective clothing and a 
face shield, or have a skilled technician do it.
WARNING
WARNING: Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead\

compounds. Wash your hands after handling.
Window Washer Fluid
If the washer fluid level is low, fill the washer reservoir. 
Canadian models
If the washer fluid level is low, the washer level 
indicator or a message appears.
Do not use engine antifreeze or a vinegar/water solution in the windshield washer 
reservoir. Antifreeze can damage your vehicle’s paint. A vinegar/water solution can 
damage the windshield washer pump.
NOTICE
Changing Wiper Blades
If the wiper blades leave streaks across the windshield, try cleaning them first with a 
paper towel or soft cloth and wiper fluid. If the wiper blade rubber has deteriorated, 
you should change the wiper blades.
Changing the Front Wiper Blade Rubber
1. Lift the driver side wiper arm first, then the
passenger side.
2. Press and hold the tab, then slide the blade from 
the wiper arm.
3. Pull the end of the wiper blade to the direction 
of the arrow (as shown in the image) until it
unfastens from the holder’s end cap.
4. Pull the wiper blade to the opposite direction to 
slide it out from its holder.
5. Insert the flat side of the new wiper blade onto 
the bottom part of the holder. Insert the blade all 
the way.
6. Install the end of the wiper blade into the cap.
7. Slide the wiper blade onto the wiper arm until it 
locks
8. Lower the passenger side wiper arm first, then
the driver side.
