Windshield Washer K(Washer Fluid): The lever on the right side of the steering column also controls the windshield washer. There is a button at the end of the lever. To spray washer fluid on the windshield, press the button and hold it. The washer will spray until you release the button. The wipers will continue to clear the window for about six seconds after the button is released and then stop or return to your preset speed. Headlamp Washer Your vehicle may have headlamp washers. The headlamp washers clear debris from the headlamp lenses. {CAUTION: In freezing weather, do not use your washer until the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the washer fluid can form ice on the windshield, blocking your vision. If the fluid in the windshield washer fluid reservoir is low, the message CHECK WASHER FLUID will appear on the Driver Information Center (DIC) display. It will take 60 seconds after the bottle is refilled for this message to turn off. For information on the correct washer fluid mixture to use, see Windshield Washer Fluid on page 5-41 and Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on page 6-12. The headlamp washers are located to the inside of the headlamps. To wash the headlamps, press the washer button located at the end of the windshield wiper lever. Headlamps will be washed when the washer button is pressed if two minutes have elapsed since the last washer button press. If two minutes have not elapsed, the headlamps will be washed every fourth washer button press. 3-15
