HEADLIGHT CLEANER SWITCH
(CANADA ONLY)
To spray fluid on the headlights, push the switch with the
headlights on.
The ignition key must be in the “ON” position.
The low washer fluid warning light in the instrument cluster
comes on when the fluid level in the tank becomes nearly
empty. For information on adding washer fluid, see “Adding
washer fluid” on page 229.
NOTICE
Do not turn the headlight cleaner on with the tank empty.
It may cause the cleaner motor to overheat.
REAR WINDOW AND OUTSIDE
REAR VIEW MIRROR DEFOGGER
SWITCH
To turn the electric rear window defogger on, push the
switch.
The ignition key must be in the “ON” position.
The thin heater wires on the inside of the rear window and the
heater panels in the outside rear view mirrors will quickly clear
the surface. Keep your hands off the mirror faces when the
switch is on. An indicator light is on when the defogger is
operating.
The system will automatically shut off when the defogger has
operated about 15 minutes.

SWITCHES
21 If further defrosting or defogging is desired, simply actuate the
switch again. When the surface has cleared, push the switch
once again to turn the defogger off. Continuous use may cause
the battery to discharge, especially during stop−and−go
driving. The defogger is not designed to dry rain water or to
melt snow.
If the outside rear view mirrors are heavily coated with ice, use
a spray de−icer before operating the switch.
NOTICE
When cleaning the inside of the rear window, be careful
not to scratch or damage the heater wires.

CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you must do the
following.
Always make sure the head, hands and other parts of
the body of all occupants are kept completely inside
the vehicle before you close the power windows. If
someone’s neck, head or hands gets caught in a
closing window, it could result in a serious injury.
When anyone closes the power windows, be sure
that they operate the windows safely.
When small children are in the vehicle, never let them
use the power window switches without supervision.
Use the window lock switch to prevent them from
making unexpected use of the switches.
Never leave small children alone in the vehicle,
especially with the ignition key still inserted. They
could use the power window switches and get
trapped in a window. Unattended children can
become involved in serious accidents.
