Fog light button (if equipped)

The fog lights operate only when the headlights are on

low beam. Push the fog light button to turn the fog

lights on.

Press the button again to turn them off.

The indicator light located on the button will illuminate

Wiper and washer

In freezing weather, do not use the windshield

washer until the windshield is sufficiently

warmed by the defroster.

Otherwise the washer fluid can freeze on the

windshield, blocking your view.

y

Do not operate the washer continuously for

more than ten seconds, or when the washer flu-

id tank is empty. This may cause overheating of

the washer motor. Check the washer fluid level

frequently, such as at fuel stops.
y

Do not operate the wipers when the wind-

shield 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,

always use the windshield washer.
y

In freezing weather, be sure that the wiper

blades are not frozen to the windshield or rear

window before switching on the wipers. At-
