Recirculating air when washer fluid
is used
When washer fluid is used, in order to
reduce any objectionable scent of the
washer fluid from entering the cabin,
recirculation mode and air conditioning
are automatically activated depending on
the outside temperature. If you select
fresh mode while the function is
operating, the function will resume after a
certain amount of time. It may not work in
some conditions such as cold weather or
vehicle OFF.
For more details, refer to "Climate Control
Additional Features" section in this
chapter.
WARNING
When the outside temperature is below
freezing, ALWAYS warm the windshield
using the defroster to help prevent the
washer fluid from freezing on the
windshield and obscuring your vision
which could result in an accident and
serious injury or death.
NOTICE
• To prevent possible damage to the
washer pump, do not operate the
washer when the fluid reservoir is
empty.
• To prevent possible damage to the
wipers or windshield, do not operate
the wipers when the windshield is dry.
• To prevent damage to the wiper arms
and other components, do not attempt
to move the wipers manually.
• To prevent possible damage to the
wipers and washer system, use
anti-freezing washer fluids in the winter
season or cold weather.
