■ Windshield wiper features
● When the washer button is pressed with the wipers OFF, the wipers will make 3
sweeps, then pause, then a final sweep to completely clear the windshield*. The
length of the pause will depend on the vehicle speed. The last sweep will not
happen if the vehicle is traveling above 106 mph (170km/h).
*The last single sweep can be deactivated. (P.3 5 5)
● When the outside temperature is below 77 °F (25 °C), operating the wind-
shield wipers will automatically turn on the rear window and outside rear view
mirror defoggers.
● When the windshield washer button is pressed with the headlights on, the head-
light cleaners automatically operate once.

washer nozzles are not blocked.
■ If the washer switch is pressed and held continually
Damage to the washer fluid pump may be caused, if the washer switch is pressed
