In freezing weather, do not use the

windshield washer until the wind-

shield is sufficiently warmed by the

defroster.
Otherwise the washer fluid can

freeze on the windshield, blocking

your view.

y

Do not operate the washer contin-

uously for more than ten seconds,

or when the washer fluid tank is

empty. This may cause overheat-

ing of the washer motor. Check

the washer fluid level frequently,

such as at fuel stops.

y

Do not operate the wipers when

the windshield or rear window is

dry. This may scratch the glass,

damage the wiper blades and

cause the wiper motor to burn out.

Before operating the wiper on a

dry windshield or rear window, al-

ways use the windshield washer.
