When the lever is pulled to wash the windshield, high pressure jets mounted in the bumper will spray the headlights.

CAUTION:
Use ample washer fluid when washing the windshield to avoid scratching the glass.

To conserve washer fluid in driving conditions where the windshield washers are used frequently, the headlights will

only be washed once for every five times the windshield is washed within a 10- minute period.
