Windshield Washer
{
CAUTION:
In freezing weather, do not use your
washer until the windshield is warmed.
Otherwise the washer fluid can form ice
on the windshield, blocking your vision.
L
(Washer Fluid): Push the paddle marked
with the windshield washer symbol at the top of the
multifunction lever, to spray washer fluid on the
windshield. The wipers clear the window and then
either stop or return to the preset speed.
Heated Windshield Washer
If your vehicle has the heated windshield washer
fluid system it may be used to help clear ice,
snow, tree sap, or bugs from your windshield.
The button is located in
the switchbank under
the climate controls.
Push the heated washer fluid button to activate the
heated windshield washer fluid system. The
indicator light will flash. This activation initiates
four heated wash/wipe cycles. The first heated
wash/wipe cycle may take up to 40 seconds to
occur, depending on outside temperature. After the
first wash/wipe cycle, it may take up to 20 seconds
for each of the remaining cycles to begin. Press the
button again to turn off the heated windshield
washer fluid system or it will automatically turn off
after four wipe cycles have been completed.
When the heated windshield washer fluid system
is activated under certain outside temperature
conditions, steam may flow out of the washer
nozzles for a short period of time before washer
fluid is sprayed. This is a normal condition.
