Precautions to observe when
using wipers and washers
E00507601327
l
If the moving wipers become blocked
partway through a sweep by ice or other
deposits on the glass, the wipers may
temporarily stop operating to prevent the
motor from overheating. In this case,
park the vehicle in a safe place, put the
operation mode in OFF, and then re-
move the ice or other deposits.
The wipers will start operating again af-
ter the wiper motor cools down, so
check that the wipers operate before us-
ing them.
l
Do not use the wipers when the glass is
dry.
They may scratch the glass surface and
the blades wear out prematurely.
l
Before using the wipers in cold weather,
check that the wiper blades are not fro-
zen onto the glass. The motor may burn
out if the wipers are used with the blades
frozen onto the glass.
l
Avoid using the washer continuously for
more than 20 seconds. Do not operate
the washer when the fluid reservoir is
empty.
Otherwise, the motor may burn out.
l
Periodically check the level of washer
fluid in the reservoir and refill if re-
quired.
During cold weather, add a recommen-
ded washer solution that will not freeze
in the washer reservoir. Failure to do so
could result in loss of washer function
and frost damage to the system compo-
nents.

E00507701142
The rear window demister switch can be op-
erated when the Plug-in Hybrid EV System is

dow demister switch and the deicer will oper-
ate.
