If there is heavy accumulation of snow
or ice on the windscreen, defrost the
windscreen for about 10 minutes, or
until the snow and/or ice is removed
before using the windscreen wipers to
ensure proper operation. If you do not
remove the snow and/or ice before
using the wiper and washer, it may dam

age the wiper and washer system.
If you operate the wipers while driving
on snowy roads, the wipers may stop
due to snow buildup on your windshield.
This is normal and not a failure because
it is one of our safety features to prevent
vehicle accidents and wiper damage
from overloading the wiper motor. If the
wipers stop, remove snow accumulated
on the top or bottom of windshield
before using them.
Operating windscreen washers
1. Move the wiper speed control switch
to In OFF position.
2. Pull the lever gently 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 continue 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.
