When you activate the windshield
washer with the headlights turned
on, the headlight washer will be
activated under certain conditions.
For more inf ormation, see
sectioninthenextcolumn. The headlight washers use the same
f luid reservoir as the windshield
washers.
The headlight washers can be
operated at any time by pressing the
headlight washer button located next
to the steering wheel column. The
headlights must be turned on to use
this button. In addition, the headlight
washer operates without pressing
the button at the first time you turn
on the windshield washers af ter you
turn the ignition switch to the ON
(II) position. Models equipped with the
keyless access system have an
engine start/stop button instead
of an ignition switch. ON Mode
is the equivalent of ON (II). For
