Rear Window Wiper/Washer
The rear window
washer/wiper button is
located on the instrument
panel below the climate
controls.
{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.

intermittent wiping setting that has a longer delay.
Y(Washer Fluid):Press this button to wash and wipe
the window.
The rear window washer uses the same uid bottle as

washer will run out of uid before the windshield washer.
If you can wash your windshield but not your rear
windows, check the uid level.
Z(Rear Wiper):Press this side of the button to turn
on an intermittent setting that has a shorter delay.
To turn either of the intermittent wiper settings off,
press the opposite side of the button to turn it to the
off position. Pressing the button all the way down
on either side will activate an intermittent wiper setting.
The rear window washer uses the same uid bottle
as the windshield washer. However, the rear window
washer will run out of uid before the windshield washer.

window, check the uid level.

When you want to leave the freeway, move to the
proper lane well in advance. If you miss your exit, do
not, under any circumstances, stop and back up.
Drive on to the next exit.
The exit ramp can be curved, sometimes quite sharply.
The exit speed is usually posted.
Reduce your speed according to your speedometer, not
to your sense of motion. After driving for any distance
at higher speeds, you may tend to think you are
going slower than you actually are.
Before Leaving on a Long Trip
Make sure you are ready. Try to be well rested. If you
must start when you are not fresh — such as after
a day’s work — do not plan to make too many miles that
rst part of the journey. Wear comfortable clothing
and shoes you can easily drive in.
Is your vehicle ready for a long trip? If you keep it
serviced and maintained, it is ready to go. If it needs
service, have it done before starting out. Of course,
you will nd experienced and able service experts in
GM dealerships all across North America. They will be
ready and willing to help if you need it.Here are some things you can check before a trip:
Windshield Washer Fluid:Is the reservoir full?
Are all windows clean inside and outside?
Wiper Blades:Are they in good shape?
Fuel, Engine Oil, Other Fluids:Have you checked
all levels?
Lamps:Are they all working? Are the lenses clean?
Tires:They are vitally important to a safe,
trouble-free trip. Is the tread good enough for
long-distance driving? Are the tires all inated to the
recommended pressure?
Weather Forecasts:What is the weather outlook
along your route? Should you delay your trip a
short time to avoid a major storm system?
Maps:Do you have up-to-date maps?
