Rear Window Washer/Wiper

If your vehicle has this feature, operate the
rear window washer/wiper system by
pushing the windshield wiper/washer lever
away from you. The wiper operates contin-
uously when the lever is in the first posi-
tion.

Washer fluid sprays onto the rear window
and the wiper operates continuously when
the lever is pushed to the second position.

Cruise Control

Cruise Control
If your vehicle has cruise control, you can
maintain a speed of about 24 mph (39 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 24 mph (39 km/h).

When you apply your brakes, or depress
the clutch pedal if you have a manual
transmission, the cruise control shuts off.

CAUTION

To help prevent damage to wind-
shield wiper and washer system
components, you should take the fol-
lowing precautions:
• Do not continue to hold in the lever

when there is no windshield
washer fluid being sprayed or the
washer motor can be damaged.

• Do not attempt to remove dirt from

a dry windshield with the wipers or
you can damage the windshield
and the wiper blades. Always wet
the windshield with washer fluid
before operating the wipers.

• Clear ice or packed snow from the

wiper blades before using the wip-
ers.

• Check the washer fluid level regu-

larly. Check it often when the
weather is bad.

• Only fill the washer fluid reservoir

3/4 full during cold weather to allow
room for expansion if the tempera-
ture falls low enough to freeze the
solution.

WARNING

• Do not spray washer fluid on the

liftgate window in freezing weather.

• Warm the tailgate window before

you operate the liftgate window
washer.

Washer fluid can form ice on a frozen
liftgate window and obstruct your
vision.

WARNING

Cruise control can be dangerous
where you cannot drive safely at a
steady speed. So, do not 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
excessive wheel slip, and you could
lose control. Do not use cruise con-
trol on slippery roads.
