Front Windshield Washers
ONX4E050044
In the OFF position, pull the lever gently
toward you to spray washer fluid on the
windshield and to run the wipers 1-3
cycles. The spray and wiper operation
continues until you release the lever. If
the washer does not work, you may need
to add washer fluid to the washer fluid
reservoir.

freezing, always warm the windshield
using the defroster to prevent the washer
fluid from freezing on the windshield and
obscuring your vision that could lead to
a collision resulting in serious injury or
death.
Always use appropriate washer fluids in
the winter season or cold weather.
NOTICE
To prevent damage:
ś
Do not operate the washer when the
fluid reservoir is empty or when the
windshield is dry.
ś
Do not attempt to move the wipers
manually.
