Care of the Head-Up Display
Clean the inside of the windshield as
needed to remove any dirt or
film that
reduces the sharpness
or clarity of the
HUD image.
To Clean the HUD:
Spray household glass cleaner on a soft,
clean cloth. Wipe the HUD lens gently,
then
dry it. Do not spray cleaner
directly on the lens, because the cleaner
fluid could leak inside the unit
if you do.
If You Can’t See the HUD Image
When the Ignition
is On:
Is anything cbvering the HUD unit?
Is the HUD dimmer control close
enough
to MAX?
Is the HUD image-adjusted to the
proper height?
Still no HUD image? Check the fuse
in the
CLUST position in the glove
box fuse panel. See the Index under
Fuses G Circuit Breakers.
