Windshield Washer

Pull the lever toward you and hold it to
spray washer fluid. In the OFF or INT 
position, the wipers will be activated until 
the lever is released.

If the washer doesn’t work, inspect the 
fluid level (page 8-20). If it’s OK, consult 
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

The rear defroster clears frost, fog, and 
thin ice from the rear window.

The ignition switch must be in the ON 
position.

Push the switch to turn on the rear 
window defroster; the indicator light will 
come on.

Push the switch again to turn it off.

Rear Window Defroster

Don’t use sharp instruments or 
window cleaners with abrasives to 
clean the inside of the rear window 
surface. They may damage the 
defroster grid inside the window.

NOTE

This defroster is not designed for 
melting snow. If there is an 
accumulation of snow on the rear 
window, brush it off before using the 
defroster.
