blades before using them.
If they are frozen to the windshield, carefully loosen or
thaw them. If your blades do become damaged, get

A circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools.
Clear away snow or ice to prevent an overload.

washer lever toward you with the ignition turned to ON.
{CAUTION:
In freezing weather, do not use your washer
until the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the
washer uid can form ice on the windshield,
blocking your vision.
When you release the lever, the washers will stop, but
the wipers will continue to wipe for several cycles and
will either stop or will resume at the speed you were
using before.
Rear Window Washer/Wiper
Your vehicle may have a rear window washer/wiper.
Operate the rear window washer/wiper system by
pushing the windshield wiper/washer lever away from
you. The wiper operates continuously when the lever is
