(Washer Fluid): Press the button located at the end of the turn signal/multifunction lever, to spray washer fluid on the windshield.

Caution: In freezing weather, do not use your washer until the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the washer fluid can form ice on the windshield, blocking your vision.

Heated Windshield Washer

For vehicles with the heated windshield washer fluid system, it helps to clear ice, snow, tree sap, or bugs from the windshield. This feature only works with the front wiper system.

The button is located to the left of the steering column below the instrument panel brightness control knob.

Press the heated washer fluid button to activate the heated windshield washer fluid system. This activation begins four heated wash/wipe cycles. The first heated wash/wipe cycle can take up to 40 seconds to occur, depending on outside temperature. After the first wash/wipe cycle, it can take up to 20 seconds for each of the remaining cycles. The system turns off automatically after four wipe cycles or the button can be pressed again to turn it off.

Under certain outside temperature conditions, steam might flow out of the washer nozzles for a short period of time before washer fluid is sprayed. This is normal.

HEATING WASH FLUID WASH WIPES PENDING is displayed on the DIC when the washer system is heating the fluid. WASHER FLUID LOW ADD FLUID is displayed when the washer fluid is low. See DIC Warnings and Messages.
