For a single sweep of the windshield,
push the lever up and release it.
To squirt washer fluid, pull the lever
toward you.
If the windshield wipers are off, they will
operate a couple of times after the washer
squirts. For instructions on adding washer fluid,
see “Adding washer fluid” on page 243 in
Section 7 3.
In freezing weather, warm the windshield
with the defroster before using the washer.
This will help prevent the washer fluid
from freezing on your windshield, which
can block your vision.

shield is dry. It may scratch the
glass.
To turn on the rear window wiper, twist
the lever knob upward.
