Windshield Washer

The lever on the right side of the steering column also

controls the windshield washer. There is a button at the

end of the lever. To spray washer ﬂuid on the windshield,

press the button and hold it. The washer will spray until

you release the button. The wipers will continue to clear

the window for about six seconds after the button is

released and then stop or return to your preset speed.

{ CAUTION:

In freezing weather, do not use your washer until

the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the washer

ﬂuid can form ice on the windshield, blocking your

vision.

If the ﬂuid in the windshield washer ﬂuid reservoir is low,

the message CHECK WASHER FLUID will appear on

the Driver Information Center (DIC) display. It will take

15 seconds after the bottle is reﬁlled for this message to

turn off. For information on the correct washer ﬂuid to

use, see Windshield Washer Fluid on page 5-42 and

Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on page 6-12.

Cruise Control

With cruise control, a speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h)

or more can be maintained without keeping your foot

on the accelerator. Cruise control does not work

at speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h).

Cruise control will not work if the parking brake is set,

or if the master cylinder brake ﬂuid level is low.

{ CAUTION:

Cruise control can be dangerous where you cannot

drive safely at a steady speed. So, do not use the

cruise control on winding roads or in heavy traffic.

Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery roads.

On such roads, fast changes in tire traction can

cause excessive wheel slip, and you could lose

control. Do not use cruise control on slippery roads.

If the vehicle is in cruise control, and has the Traction

Control System (TCS), and it begins to limit wheel spin,

the cruise control automatically disengages. See Traction

Control System (TCS) on page 4-6. When road

conditions allow the cruise control to be safely

used again, it can be turned back on.
