Wiper Operation
The windshield wipers and washers can be used when the vehicle is on.
Front Wipers
Move the wiper lever up or down to the desired position.
Headlight-Wiper Integration*
When the headlights are in the AUTO position, they automatically turn on when the front wipers operate several times within a certain interval. The headlights turn off shortly after the wipers are turned off, or if there is enough
ambient light.
Rear Wiper
Rotate the end of the wiper lever to the desired position. When you shift to Reverse (R) and the front wipers are activated, the rear wiper activates even if the switch is off.
Do not use the wipers when the windshield is dry. The windshield will get  scratched, or the rubber blades will get damaged.
In cold weather, the blades may freeze to the windshield, becoming stuck.  Operating the wipers in this condition may damage the wipers. Use the
defroster to warm the windshield, or manually clear the windshield of ice and snow before turning on the wipers.

Inspecting and Changing Fuses
1. Turn the vehicle off, including all lights and
accessories.
2. Check the fuses on the battery in the engine  compartment. If the fuse is blown, have it 
replaced by a dealer.
3. Remove the fuse box cover.
4. Inspect the small fuses in the engine 
compartment and the vehicle interior.
  If there is a burned-out fuse, remove it with the  fuse puller and replace it with a new one.
5. Check the large fuse in the engine compartment.
  If the fuse is blown, use a Phillips-head  screwdriver to remove the screw and replace the
fuse with a new one. Reinstall the screw.
Replacing a fuse with one that has a higher rating greatly increases the chances of damaging the electrical system.
