WASHER PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

If you operate your

vehicle in temperatures below 41°F
(5°C), use washer fluid with antifreeze
protection. Failure to use washer fluid
with antifreeze protection in cold
weather could result in impaired
windshield vision and increase the risk
of injury or accident.

Do not operate the washers when the
washer reservoir is empty. This could cause
the washer pump to overheat.

Keep the outside of the windshield clean.
The rain sensor is very sensitive and the
wipers may operate if dirt, mist or insects
hit the windshield.

HEADLAMPS –
TROUBLESHOOTING

HEADLAMPS – FREQUENTLY
ASKED QUESTIONS

Why is there condensation in the
headlamps?

•

Headlamps have vents to
accommodate normal changes in air
pressure. Condensation can be a
natural by-product of this design.
When moist air enters the lamp
assembly through the vents, there is a
possibility that condensation can occur
when the temperature is cold. When
normal condensation occurs, a fine
mist can form on the interior of the
lens. The fine mist eventually clears
and exits through the vents during
normal operation.

How much condensation is
acceptable?

•

The presence of a fine mist, for
example no streaks, drip marks or large
droplets. A fine mist covers less than
50% of the lens.

How long does it take for the
acceptable condensation to clear?

•

Clearing time can take as long as 48
hours under dry weather conditions.

How much condensation is
unacceptable?

•

A water puddle inside the lamp.
Streaks, drip marks or large droplets
present on the interior of the lens.

What should I do if unacceptable
condensation is present?

•

Have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible.

Why do my headlamps turn off
when I have them switched on
when I switch my vehicle off?

•

The battery saver turns the headlamps
off after a short period of time after you
switch your vehicle off.
