Windshield Washer

At the top of the multifunction lever, there is a paddle
with the word PUSH on it. To spray washer fluid on the
windshield, push the paddle. The wipers will run for
several sweeps and then either stop or return to your
preset speed. See “Windshield Washer Fluid” in 
the Index.

CAUTION:

In freezing weather, don’t use your washer until
the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the washer
fluid can form ice on the windshield, blocking
your vision.

The LOW WASH light on
your instrument panel
cluster will glow when the
fluid level is low.

Cruise Control

With cruise control, you can maintain a speed of about
25 mph (40 km/h) or more without keeping your foot 
on the accelerator. This can really help on long trips.
Cruise control does not work at speeds below about 
25 mph (40 km/h).

When you apply your brakes, the cruise control 
shuts off.

CAUTION:

D

Cruise control can be dangerous where 
you can’t drive safely at a steady speed. 
So, don’t use your cruise control on
winding roads or in heavy traffic.

D

Cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. On such roads, fast changes
in tire traction can cause needless wheel
spinning, and you could lose control. 
Don’t use cruise control on slippery roads.
