SWITCHES For mist wiper operations (a single wipe), pull the lever toward you and release it. To make the washer squirt, push the button on the end of the lever. If the wiper lever is in the "OFF" position, the wipers will automatically make 3 wipes and then a single wipe later to sweep the windshield completely.* The interval between the 3 wipes and the last wipe will depend on the vehicle speed. The last sweep does not happen if the vehicle speed exceeds about 170 km/h (106 mph). NOTE: * The last single wipe can be deactivated. Ask your Lexus dealer for details. The warning message "Low Washer Fluid" is displayed in the multi−information display when the fluid level in the tank becomes very low. For information on adding washer fluid, see "Adding washer fluid" on page 503. When the headlights are on and the washers are activated by pushing the windshield washer switch, the headlight cleaner operates once automatically. In cold weather, warm the windshield with the defroster before using the washer. This will help prevent icing, which could block your vision. The rear window and outside rear view mirror defogger automatically turns on when you operate the wipers. To spray fluid on the headlights, push the switch with the headlights on. The ignition switch must be in the "ON" position. The warning message "Low Washer Fluid" is displayed in the multi−information display when the fluid level in the tank becomes very low. For information on adding washer fluid, see "Adding washer fluid" on page 503. NOTICE Do not operate the wipers if the windshield is dry. It may scratch the glass. HEADLIGHT CLEANER SWITCH 12L176 62
