Intermittent wiper functionWith the lever in this position, you can set the wiper interval bytwisting the control ring (1)upward to increase wiper speedor downward to decrease the
speed.
Windshield washer/headlight washer (certain models)
When the lever is pulled to wash the wind- shield, high pressure jets mounted in thebumper will spray the headlights.
CAUTION
• Use ample washer fluid when washing the windshield to avoid scratching theglass. The windshield should be thor-oughly wet when the wipers are inoperation.
• Before using the wipers, ice and snowshould be removed from the wind-shield/rear window. Be sure the wiperblades are not frozen in place.
•
To conserve washer fluid in driving condi- tions where the windshield washers areused frequently, the headlights will onlybe washed once for every five times the windshield is washed within a 10-minuteperiod.
• A short pull on the lever will wash thewindshield only.
• When approximately 1 US quart (1 liter)remains in the washer fluid reservoir, theheadlights will not be washed when thelever is pulled to conserve washer fluidfor the windshield. A text message willalso be displayed to remind the driver tofill the washer fluid reservoir.

The trip computer stores information gath- ered from several systems in your vehicle andhas four menus that can be displayed in thetext window.
• Driving distance on current fuel reserve
• Average fuel consumption
• Current fuel consumption
• Average speed •
Current speed in mph (Canadian models only)
• DSTC (see page 158 for detailed infor-mation)

80* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
These 12 volt sockets can be used to plug in certain accessories such as cellular tele-phones, etc. The ignition key must be in at least position I
for the sockets in the front seat and the optional socket at the rear of the center con-sole to function. The maximum current consumption is 10A (120W) if only one of the 12-volt sockets inthe passenger compartment is in use. If boththe front and rear sockets are used at thesame time, the maximum current consump-tion per socket is 7.5A (90W). 12-volt socket in the cargo compartment Fold down the lid to use the socket. This socket can be used even if the ignition isswitched off.NOTE
• If the 12-volt sockets are used while the engine is not running, there is arisk that the vehicle's battery will bedischarged.
• If the ignition is switched off and adevice drawing more than 0.1 A isconnected to a socket, a battery warn-ing will be displayed in the text win-dow.
