Mitsubishi Outlander: Headlamp washer switch*
The headlamp washer can be operated with the ignition switch in the “ON” or “ACC”
position and the lamp switch at the position.
Push the button once and the washer fluid will be sprayed on to the headlamps.
NOTE:
● If the ignition switch is in the “ON” or “ACC” position and the headlamps are
on, the headlamp washer operates together with the windscreen washer the first time
the windscreen washer lever is pulled.
● Check the headlamp washers periodically to confirm that the washer fluid is being
sprayed properly on to the headlamp lenses.
Precautions to observe when using wipers and washers
● If the moving wipers become blocked by ice or other deposits on the glass, the
motor may burn out even if the wiper switch is turned to OFF. If obstruction occurs,
park your vehicle in a safe place, turn off the ignition, and clean the deposits
from the glass so that the wipers operate smoothly.
● Do not use the wipers when the glass is dry. They may scratch the glass surface
and the blades wear out prematurely.
● Before using the wipers in cold weather, check that the wiper blades are not frozen
onto the glass. The motor may burn out if the wipers are used with the blades frozen
onto the glass.
● Avoid using the washer continuously for more than 20 seconds. Do not operate the
washer when the fluid reservoir is empty. Otherwise, the motor may burn out.
● Periodically check the level of washer fluid in the reservoir and refill if required.
During cold weather, add a recommended washer solution that will not freeze in the
washer reservoir. Failure to do so could result in loss of washer function and frost
damage to the system components.
