Precautions to observe when using wip-
ers and washers
E00507600014
l If
the moving wipers become blocked by ice
or other deposits on the glass, the motor may
burn out even if the wiper switch is turned to
OFF. If obstruction occurs, park your vehicle
in a safe place, turn off the ignition, and
clean the deposits from the glass so that the
wipers operate smoothly.
l Do not use the wipers when the glass is dry.
They may scratch the glass surface or the
blades may prematurely wear out.
l Before using the wipers in cold weather,
check that the wiper blades are not frozen on-
to the glass. The motor may burn out if the
wipers are used with the blades frozen onto
the glass.
l Avoid using the washer continuously for
more than 20 seconds. Do not operate the
washer when the fluid reservoir is empty.
Otherwise, the motor may burn out.
l Periodically check the level of washer fluid
in the reservoir and refill if required.
During cold weather, add a recommended
washer solution that will not freeze in the
washer reservoir. Failure to do so could re-
sult in loss of washer function and frost dam-
age to the system components. Headlamp washer switch*

the ignition switch is in the “ON” or
“ACC” position and the headlamps are on,
the headlamp washer operates together with
the windscreen washer the first time the wind-
screen washer lever is pulled. Rear window demister switch

pressed, the outside rear-view mirrors are de-
fogged or defrosted. Refer to “Heated mir-
ror” on page 4-08.
l The demister switch is not to melt snow but
to clear mist. Remove snow before use of the
demister switch.
l To avoid unnecessary discharge of the bat-
tery, do not use the rear window demister dur-
ing starting of the engine or when the engine
is not running. Turn the demister off immedi-
ately after the window is clear. Instruments and controls
