'06 AVALON_U (L/O 0508) Rear window and outside rear view mirror defoggers To squirt washer fluid, pull the lever toward you (position 5). After the washer operates, the wipers operate three times in low operation, pause for several seconds, and then operate once more. This occurs only if the wiper switch is in the "OFF" or "INT" position. The interval between the 3 wipes and the final wipe depends on the vehicle speed. The final sweep does not occur if the vehicle speed exceeds 170 km/h (106 mph). The final wipe (after a pause of several seconds) prevents the washer fluid from dripping. The final wipe can be set to occur after a three second pause, or can be deactivated. For details, ask your Toyota dealer. For instructions on adding washer fluid, see "Adding washer fluid" on page 369 in Section 7- 3. In freezing weather, warm the windshield with the defroster before using the washer. This will help prevent the washer fluid from freezing on your windshield, which can block your vision. Type B NOTICE Do not operate the wipers if the windshield is dry. It may scratch the glass or may damage wiper blades. When waxing your vehicle, make sure that the washer nozzles do not become blocked. If a nozzle becomes blocked, contact your Toyota dealer to have the vehicle serviced. NOTICE If a nozzle becomes blocked, do not try to clear it with a pin or other object. The nozzle will be damaged. Type A 139
