{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.
Pull the windshield wiper lever toward you to spray
washer uid on the windshield. The wipers will run for
a few cycles to clear the windshield. For more wash

Heated Windshield Washer
If your vehicle has the Rainsense™ windshield wiper
system, the windshield washer uid is heated. For more
information about Rainsense™ wipers, seeRainsense™
II Wipers on page 3-9. The heated windshield washer
only works with the front wiper system, not the rear
wiper system. This feature helps to clear ice, snow,
tree sap, or bugs from the windshield.
The heated windshield washer uid system
automatically turns on when the windshield washer
uid is used while the rear window defogger is on.
For more information about the rear window defogger,
seeAutomatic Climate Control System on page 3-18.
This activation begins four heated wash/wipe cycles.
The rst heated wash/wipe cycle can take up to
40 seconds to occur, depending on outside temperature.
After the rst wash/wipe cycle, it can take up to
20 seconds for each of the remaining cycles.
When the heated windshield washer uid system is
activated under certain outside temperature conditions,
steam might ow out of the washer nozzles for a
short period of time before washer uid is sprayed.
This is a normal condition.

AUTO (Automatic Air Delivery Mode):Turn the
air delivery mode knob to AUTO for the system to
automatically control the direction of the airow to help
reach the desired inside temperature.
The system automatically controls the air inlet to supply
the outside air or recirculated inside air needed to cool
the vehicle faster. The indicator light on the recirculation
button will be lit whenever the system changes to
recirculation. Press the recirculation button to change
to outside air. However, the recirculation mode may
turn back on automatically.
In cold weather, if the fan and air delivery modes are
in automatic, the system starts at lower fan speeds to
avoid directing cold air into the vehicle until warmer air is
available. The climate control system directs air to the
oor, but may automatically change modes as the vehicle
warms up to maintain the chosen temperature setting.
The length of time needed to warm the interior depends
on the outside temperature and inside temperature of
the vehicle.Manual Operation
It is best to use the automatic settings to maximize fuel
economy.
To change the current fan speed, turn the left knob.
A(Fan):Turn the left knob clockwise to increase
the fan speed or counterclockwise to decrease the
fan speed. To turn the fan off, turn the left knob to
the
9position. In any setting other than off, the fan
runs continuously with the ignition on. The fan must be
turned on to run the air conditioning compressor. There
will be some airow noticeable from the various outlets
when driving, even with the fan in the off position.
This is to ensure some fresh air is always available
in the vehicle. To turn off the air completely, turn the
fan to
9and select the recirculation button.
Temperature Control:Select the desired cabin air
temperature between 60-90°F (16-32°C). Typically,
the best setting is near 75°F (23°C). Choosing the
coldest or warmest temperature setting does not
cause the system to heat or cool any faster.
