WARNING
In freezing weather, do not use
the washer until the windshield
is warmed. Otherwise the
washer fluid can form ice on the
windshield, blocking your vision.
Clear snow and ice from the wiper
blades before using them. If frozen
to the windshield, carefully loosen
or thaw them. Damaged blades
should be replaced. See Wiper
Blade Replacement on page 10‑30.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the
wiper motor.
Wipe Parking
If the ignition is turned to
LOCK/OFF while the wipers
are on LO, HI, or INT, they will
immediately stop.
If the windshield wiper lever is then
moved to off before the driver door
is opened or within 10 minutes, the
wipers will restart and move to the
base of the windshield.
If the ignition is turned to
LOCK/OFF while the wipers are
performing wipes due to windshield
washing, the wipers continue to
run until they reach the base of
the windshield.
