Windshield wiper deicer (if
equipped)
The windshield wiper deicer operates only
when the ignition switch is in the “ON” po-
sition.
Before turning on the windshield wiper de-
icer, remove any snow from the wind-
shield. To turn on the windshield wiper de-
icer, push the button. The indicator light
located on the button lights up while the
windshield wiper deicer is operating.
The windshield wiper deicer will automati-
cally shut off after approximately 15 min-
utes. If the windshield wiper blades have
been deiced completely before that time,
push the button to turn it off. It also turns
off when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ACC” or “LOCK” position. If deicing is not
complete, you have to push the button to
turn the deicer on again.
Your SUBARU dealer can set your wind-
shield wiper deicer for continuous opera-
tion. Contact your SUBARU dealer for de-
tails.
Once the windshield wiper deicer has
been set for continuous operation, press-
ing the button results in continuous opera-
tion. The windshield wiper deicer automat-
ically stops operating if any one of the fol-
lowing conditions occurs during continu-
ous operation.
y The outside temperature becomes 41°F
(5°C) or higher.
y The vehicle speed remains at 9 mph (15
km/h) or lower for 15 minutes.
y The battery voltage decreases below
the permissible level.
