Windshield Washer - Hummer 2008 H2 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.
LQ (Washer Fluid): There is a paddle marked
with the windshield washer symbol at the top of
the multifunction lever. Push the paddle to spray
washer fluid on the windshield. The wipers will clear
the window and then either stop or return to the
preset speed.
_
(Heated Washer Fluid): If your vehicle has the
heated windshield washer fluid system, it is used
to help clear ice, snow, tree sap, or bugs from your
windshield.

To activate Automatic mode for de-icing, press the
heated washer button located to the left of the
steering wheel below the instrument panel brightness
control knob. Pushing the heated washer fluid button
activates the heated windshield washer fluid system.
This activation will initiate four heated wash/wipe cycles.
The first heated wash/wipe cycle may take up to
40 seconds to occur, depending on outside temperature.
After the first wash/wipe cycle, it may take up to
20 seconds for each of the remaining cycles. The heated
windshield washer fluid system may be turned off at
any time by pushing the button again prior to the
completion of 4 wash/wipe cycles.
When the heated windshield washer fluid system is
activated under certain outside temperature conditions,
steam may flow out of the washer nozzles for a short
period of time before washer fluid is sprayed. This is
a normal condition. A message will be displayed on
the Driver Information Center (DIC) when the washer
fluid is low. See DIC Warnings and Messages on
page 3-56.
