Windshield Washer; Rear Window Wiper/Washer; Cruise Control - Chevrolet 2008 Equinox Owner's Manual

Windshield Washer

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.
There is a button marked with the windshield 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, press and hold the button longer.

Rear Window Wiper/Washer

The rear wiper and rear wash buttons are located on
the instrument panel above the audio system.
Z
(Rear Wiper): Press this button to turn the rear
wiper on and off. When the wiper is on it will run
continuously at a preset speed.
Y
(Wash): Press this button to spray washer fluid on
the rear window. The window wiper will also come on.
Release the button when enough fluid has been sprayed
on the window. The rear wiper will run a few more cycles
after it is released. If the rear wiper function was already
on, prior to pressing the wash button, it will stay on until
the wiper button is pressed again.
The rear window washer uses the same fluid that is in
the windshield washer reservoir. See Windshield
Washer Fluid on page 5-32.

Cruise Control

Cruise control lets you maintain a speed of about
25 mph (40 km/h) or more without keeping your foot on
the accelerator. This can really help on long trips. Cruise
control does not work at speeds below 25 mph (40 km/h).
