Windshield Washer System






WARNING: WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID CONTAINS METHANOL WHICH IS POISONOUS. OBSERVE ALL CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS INDICATED ON LABEL OF WASHER SOLUTION CONTAINER.

The windshield washer system operates as follows:
^ The washer system has two windshield washer nozzle jets located on the RH cowl vent screen and LH cowl vent screen.
^ The washer system is activated by pushing in on the outboard end of the multi-function switch.
^ This action energizes the windshield washer pump mounted inside the windshield washer reservoir.
^ The windshield washer reservoir is mounted on the RH fender apron.
^ If multi-function switch is in OFF or INT position, windshield wiper will run as long as knob is pushed in. When the knob is released, washers will stop immediately but windshield wipers will continue to run for three to four cycles before returning to OFF or interval operation.
^ If the multi-function switch is in LO or HI position, washers operate with no change in windshield wiper operation.

The washer nozzle jet sprays windshield washer fluid in a fan-like pattern onto the windshield glass, but the jet is actually a single oscillating stream. Only actuate the system momentarily to avoid sending more fluid than needed through the system.

The windshield washer nozzle jet and bracket is not adjustable.
