REAR WINDOW FEATURES
Rear Window Wiper/Washer
The rear wiper/washer controls are located on
the windshield wiper/washer lever on the right
side of the steering column. The rear wiper/
washer is operated by rotating a switch, located
at the middle of the lever.
Rotate the center portion of the lever
upward to the first detent for intermit-
tent operation and to the second de-
tent for continuous rear wiper operation.
To use the washer, push the lever
forward and hold while spray is
desired. If the lever is pushed while
in the intermittent setting, the wiper
will turn on and operate for several
wipe cycles after the end of the lever is re-
leased, and then resume the intermittent inter-
val previously selected.
If the lever is pushed while the wiper is in the off
position, the wiper will operate for several wipe
cycles, then turn off.
NOTE:
As a protective measure, the pump will stop
if the switch is held for more than 20 sec-
onds. Once the lever is released the pump
will resume normal operation.
If the rear wiper is operating when the ignition is
turned OFF, the wiper will automatically return
to the “park” position.
Rear Window Defroster
The rear window defroster button is
located on the switch bank by the
manual climate controls. Press this
button to turn on the rear window de-
froster and the heated outside mirrors. An indi-
cator in the button will illuminate when the rear
window defroster is on. The rear window de-
froster automatically turns off after approxi-
mately 10 minutes. For an additional five min-
utes of operation, press the button a second
time.
NOTE:
•
The Windshield Wiper De-Icer (if
equipped) shall be activated automati-
cally when the Rear Defrost is turned on
and when the ambient temperature is be-
low 40 degrees F (4.4° C).
•
To prevent excessive battery drain, use
the rear window defroster only when the
engine is operating.
