Windshield Washer

WARNING
In freezing weather, do not use your

can form ice on the windshield,
blocking your vision.
There is a button marked with the wind-
shield washer symbol at the end of the
windshield wiper lever. Press this button to
spray washer fluid on the windshield. The
wipers will run for a few cycles to clear the
window and then either stop or return to
your preset speed. For more wash cycles,

The rear wiper and rear wash buttons are
located in the switchbank above the shift
lever.
(Rear Wiper):
Press this button to turn the rear wiper on
and off. When the button is on, the rear

Press this button to spray washer fluid on

function was already on, prior to pressing
the wash button, it will continue to stay on

The rear window washer uses the same
fluid that is in the windshield washer reser-
is
voir. Refer to "Windshield Washer Fluid" in

"Service and Appearance Care" section.

Cruise Control

With cruise control, you can maintain a
speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more
without keeping your foot on the accelera-
tor. This can really help on long trips.
Cruise control does not work at speeds
below 25 mph (40 km/h).
WARNING
Cruise control can be dangerous
where you cannot drive safely at a
steady speed. So, do not use your
cruise control on winding roads or in
heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. On such roads, fast
changes in tire traction can cause
excessive wheel slip, and you could
lose control. Do not use cruise con-
trol on slippery roads.
Setting Cruise Control
WARNING
If you leave your cruise control on
when you are not using cruise, you
might hit a button and go into cruise
when you do not want to. You could
be startled and even lose control.
Keep the cruise control switch off
until you want to use cruise control.
