Windscreen washers (front)
In the O (Off) position, pull the lever gen-
tly toward you to spray washer fluid on
the windscreen and to run the wipers 1-3
cycles.
Use this function when the windscreen is
dirty.
The spray and wiper operation will con-
tinue until you release the lever.
If the washer does not work, check the
washer fluid level. If the fluid level is not
sufficient, you will need to add appropri-
ate non-abrasive windscreen washer
fluid to the washer reservoir.
The reservoir filler neck is located in the
front of the engine compartment on the
driver side.
