Instruments and Controls
Heavy snow or ice can overload the
wipers. A circuit breaker stops them
until the motor cools.
Windshield Washer
FRONT (Washer Fluid): Press
the button at the end of the lever, to
spray washer fluid on the
windshield. The wipers clear the
windshield and either stop or return
to the preset speed. The ignition key
must be in ACC/ACCESSORY or
ON/RUN for this to work. See
Washer Fluid on page 10-19.
Warning
In freezing weather, do not use
the washer until the windshield is
warmed. Otherwise the washer
fluid can form ice on the
windshield, blocking your vision.
WASHER FLUID LOW ADD FLUID
is displayed on the Driver
Information Center (DIC) when the
washer fluid is low. See Washer
Fluid Messages on page 5-43.
Rear Window Wiper/
Washer
The rear wiper and rear wash button
is on the center stack below the
climate control system.
(Rear Wiper): Press to turn the
rear wiper on and off. The wiper
speed cannot be changed.
(Wash): Press 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 stays on until the
wiper button is pressed again.
The rear window washer uses the
same fluid that is in the windshield
washer reservoir. See Washer Fluid
on page 10-19.
Compass
Your vehicle may have a compass
in the Driver Information Center
(DIC). See Driver Information
Center (DIC) on page 5-24 for more
information about the DIC.
Compass Zone
The zone is set to zone eight upon
leaving the factory. Your dealer will
set the correct zone for your
location.
Under certain circumstances,
such as during a long distance
cross-country trip or moving to a
new state or province, it will be
necessary to compensate for
compass variance by resetting the
zone through the DIC if the zone is
not set correctly.
