Wiper and washer
WARNING
In freezing weather, do not use the
windshield washer until the wind-
shield is sufficiently warmed by the
defroster.
Otherwise the washer fluid can
freeze on the windshield, blocking
your view.
CAUTION
.Do not operate the washer con-
tinuously for more than 10 sec-
onds, or when the washer fluid
tank is empty. This may cause
overheating of the washer motor.
Check the washer fluid level
frequently, such as at fuel stops.
.Do not operate the wipers when
the windshield or rear window is
dry. This may scratch the glass,
damage the rubber wiper blades
and might cause the wiper motor
to fail. Before operating the wiper
on a dry windshield or rear
window, always use the wind-
shield washer..In freezing weather, be sure that
the rubber wiper blades are not
frozen to the windshield or rear
window before switching on the
wipers. Attempting to operate the
wiper with the rubber wiper
blades frozen to the window
glass could cause not only the
rubber wiper blades to be da-
maged but also might cause the
wiper motor to fail. If the rubber
wiper blades are frozen to the
window glass, be sure to operate
the defroster, windshield wiper
deicer (if equipped) or rear win-
dow defogger before turning on
the wiper.
.If the wipers stop during opera-
tion because of ice or some other
obstruction on the window, this
might cause the wiper motor to
fail even if the wiper switch is
turned off. If this occurs,
promptly stop the vehicle in a
safe place, turn the ignition
switch to the“LOCK”/“OFF”po-
sition and clean the window
glass to allow proper wiper op-
eration.
.Use clean water if windshield
washer fluid is unavailable. In
areas where water freezes in
