Be sure to clear ice and snow from the wiper blades
before using them. If they’re frozen to the windshield,
carefully loosen or thaw them. If the blades do
become damaged, replace them with new blades.
See “Windshield Wiper Blade Replacement” in
the Index.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper motor.
A circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools.
Clear away snow or ice to prevent an overload.
Windshield Washer
Pull and hold the
washer lever to wash
the windshield. Release
the lever when you have
enough fluid. The wipers
will clear the windshield
and either stop or return
to your preset speed.
CAUTION:
In freezing weather, don’t use your washer until
the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the washer
fluid can form ice on the windshield, blocking
your vision.
This light on the instrument
panel cluster will be
displayed when the washer
fluid reaches a low level.
See “Low Washer Fluid Warning Light” in the Index for
more information.
