Windshield Washer
The lever on the right side of your steering column also
controls your windshield washer.
To spray washer fluid
on the windshield, pull the lever toward you. The wipers
will clear the window and then either stop or return to
your preset speed. For more washer cycles, pull and
hold the lever.
If the fluid level in the windshield washer bottle is low,
the message LOW WASHER FLUID will appear in the
information center. See “Windshield Washer Fluid” in
the Index.
Driving without washer fluid can be dangerous.
A bad
mud splash can block your vision.
You could hit another
vehicle or go off the road. Check your washer fluid level
often.
NOTICE:
When using concentrated washer fluid,
follow the manufacturer’s instructions for
adding water.
Don’t mix water with ready-to-use washer
fluid. Water can cause the solution to freeze
and damage your washer fluid tank and
other parts of the washer system. Also,
water doesn’t clean
as well as washer fluid.
Fill your washer fluid tank only
3/4 full
when it’s very cold. This allows for
expansion, which could damage the tank if
it
is completely full.
Don’t use radiator antifreeze in your
windshield washer. It can damage your
washer system and paint.

Cleaning the Outside of the
Windshield and Wiper Blades
If the windshield is not clear after using the windshield
washer,
or if the wiper blade chatters when running, wax
or other material may be
on the blade or windshield.
Clean the outside
of the windshield with GM
Windshield Cleaner, Bon-Ami Powder@ (GM Part
No. 10500 I 1). The windshield is clean if beads do not
form when you rinse
it with water.
Clean the blade by wiping vigorously with a cloth
soaked
in full strength windshield washer solvent. Then
rinse the blade with water.
Wiper blades should be checked
on a regular basis and
replaced
when worn.
Weatherstrips
Silicone grease on weatherstrips will make them last
longer, seal better, and not stick or squeak. Apply
silicone grease with
a clean cloth at least every six
months. During very cold, damp weather more frequent
application may be required. (See "Recommended
Fluids and Lubricants"
in the Index.)
Cleaning the Outside of Your Aurora
The paint finish on your vehicle provides beauty, depth
of color, gloss retention and durability.
Washing Your Vehicle
The best way to preserve your vehicle's finish is to keep
it clean by washing it often with lukewarm or cold
water.
Don't wash your vehicle
in the direct rays of the sun.
Don't use strong soaps or chemical detergents. Use
liq~~id hand, dish or car washing (mild detergent) soaps.
Don't use cleaning agents that are petroleum based, or
that contain acid or abrasives.
All cleaning agents
should be flushed promptly and not allowed to dry on
the surface, or they could stain. Dry the finish
with a
soft, clean chamois or a
100% cotton towel to avoid
surface scratches and water spotting.
High pressure vehicle washes may cause water to enter
your vehicle.
