yellowblue It is important to note that the moisture-sensing delay wiping feature can be overridden at any time by manually turning the wiper band to LO or HI speed. If the windshield on your vehicle ever needs replacement, make sure that the new windshield is moisture-sensing delay compatible. If your vehicle is equipped with a DIC, a WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID LOW message will appear on the display when the vehicle is low on washer fluid. Cruise Control With cruise control, you can maintain a speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more without keeping your foot on the accelerator. This can really help on long trips. Cruise control does not work at speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h). When you apply your brakes, the cruise control shuts off. Windshield Washer At the top of the multifunction lever there is a paddle with the word PUSH on it. For "programmed" operation, press and release the paddle. The washer will provide a measured amount of fluid to the windshield and the wiper will either stop or return to your original wiping speed. For "demand" operation, press and hold the paddle for at least two seconds. Release the paddle when you have enough fluid and the wipers will either stop or return to your original wiping speed. CAUTION: D Cruise control can be dangerous where you can't drive safely at a steady speed. So, don't use your cruise control on winding roads or in heavy traffic. Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery roads. On such roads, fast changes in tire traction can cause needless wheel spinning, and you could lose control. Don't use cruise control on slippery roads. CAUTION: In freezing weather, don't use your washer until the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the washer fluid can form ice on the windshield, blocking your vision. D 2-40
