WARNING
Do not use the washer in freezing temperatures without first warming the windshield with
the defrosters; the washer solution could freeze on the windshield and obscure your
vision.
CAUTION
僅 When the EV button is in ON position and the windshield wiper switch is placed in the
AUTO mode, use caution in the following situations to avoid any injury to the hands or
other parts of the body:
- Do not touch the upper end of the windshield glass facing the rain sensor.
- Do not wipe the upper end of the windshield glass with a damp or wet cloth.
- Do not put pressure on the windshield glass.
僅 When washing the vehicle, set the wiper switch in the OFF (0) position to stop the auto
wiper operation.
The wiper may operate and be damaged if the switch is set in the AUTO mode while
washing the vehicle.
僅 Do not remove the sensor cover located on the upper end of the driver or passenger
side windshield glass. Damage to system parts could occur and may not be covered by
your vehicle warranty.
僅 When starting the vehicle in winter, set the wiper switch in the OFF (0) position. Other-
wise, wipers may operate and ice may damage the windshield wiper blades. Always
remove all snow and ice and defrost the windshield properly prior to operating the wind-
shield wipers.
僅 When tinting the windshield, be careful of any fluid getting into the sensor located in the
top center of the front windshield. It may damage the related parts.
