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.

The LOW WASH light
on your instrument panel
cluster will glow when
the fluid level is low.

Cruise Control (If Equipped)

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.

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.

D 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.

If your vehicle is in cruise control when the enhanced
traction system begins to limit wheel spin, the cruise
control will automatically disengage. See “Enhanced
Traction System” in the Index. When road conditions
allow you to safely use it again, you may turn the cruise
control back on.
