Mist Feature; Windshield Washers; Headlights On With Wipers - Dodge Viper 2017 Operating Information Manual

CAUTION!
• Turn the windshield wipers off when driving
through an automatic car wash. Damage to
the windshield wipers may result if the
wiper control is left in any position other
than off.
• In cold weather, always turn off the wiper
switch and allow the wipers to return to the
park position before turning off the engine.
If the wiper switch is left on and the wipers
freeze to the windshield, damage to the
wiper motor may occur when the vehicle is
restarted.
• Always remove any buildup of snow that
prevents the windshield wiper blades from
returning to the off position. If the wind-
shield wiper control is turned off and the
blades cannot return to the off position,
damage to the wiper motor may occur.

Mist Feature

When a single wipe to clear off road mist or
spray from a passing vehicle is needed, push
the washer knob, located on the end of the
multifunction lever, inward to the first detent and
release. The wipers will cycle one time and
automatically shut off.

NOTE:
The mist feature does not activate the
washer pump; therefore, no washer fluid will
be sprayed on the windshield. The wash
function must be used in order to spray the
windshield with washer fluid.

Windshield Washers

To use the windshield washer, push the washer
knob, located on the end of the multifunction
lever, inward to the second detent. Washer fluid
will be sprayed and the wiper will operate for two
to three cycles after the washer knob is released
from this position.
If the washer knob is depressed while in the
delay range, the wiper will operate for several
seconds after the washer knob is released. It will
then resume the intermittent interval previously
selected. If the washer knob is pushed while in
the off position, the wiper will turn on and cycle
approximately three times after the wash knob is
released.
To prevent freeze-up of your windshield washer
system in cold weather, select a solution or
mixture that meets or exceeds the temperature
range of your climate. This rating information
can be found on most washer fluid containers.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the wind-
shield could lead to a collision. You might not
see other vehicles or other obstacles. To
avoid sudden icing of the windshield during
freezing weather, warm the windshield with
the defroster before and during windshield
washer use.

Headlights On With Wipers

When this feature is active, the headlights will
turn on after the wipers are turned on if the
headlight switch is placed in the AUTO position
and programmable feature is set to on. In addi-
tion, the headlights will turn off when the wipers
are turned off if they were turned on by this
feature.
NOTE:
The "Headlights On With Wipers" feature
can be turned on or off using the Uconnect
System. Refer to "Uconnect
Customer Programmable Features" in "Un-
derstanding Your Instrument Panel" for fur-
ther information.
