Windscreen washers
In the OFF position, pull the lever
gently toward you to spray washer
fluid on the windscreen 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.
If equipped with the Headlamp
Washer, washer fluid will be sprayed
on the headlamp at the same time
you operate the windscreen washer
when:
1. The ignition switch is in the ON
position.
2. The light switch is in the headlamp
position.
OAD045404When the outside temperature is
below freezing, ALWAYS warm
the windscreen using the
defroster to prevent the washer
fluid from freezing on the wind-
screen and obscuring your
vision, which could result in an
accident and serious injury or
death.
