Hi Jessica. Using the same lever that operates the wipers, pull it towards you, sort of like you were doing "flash to pass" with the turn signal. You'll have to hold it for a couple of seconds to ensure that you get a good stream of washer fluid going. By doing this, your wipers will start up (if they aren't already wiping) and washer fluid will flow. Again, assuming that the wipers aren't in the ON or INTERMITTENT positions, they will wipe 3 times (I think it's three...) and then park themselves in the off position.

If you want the manual, go here to choose the appropriate one:

I use the Rain X windsheild washer fluid too, wow its well worth the money, I actually use less of this stuff to keep my windows clean. And it seems to have some of the properties of the actual RainX formula.

The Rain-X liquid applied to the windshield made my wipers hop...and the instructions were followed 100%. The rain-x was a b*tch to take off. Think will stick with the traditional method of using wipers

I've heard of a few others that found the same problem... strange.

I had a bad experience with it years ago myself. I had to park my car outside throughout the winter and for some reason with the rain x applied the windows were almost impossible to scrape the ice off. I absolutely had to melt the ice off.

I use rain x and I love that stuff, then again I park my cars in the garage so I have no problem. Also I really don't know about the rain x fluid because of the teflon or whatever chemical they use. Reason because I am not sure what effect it will have on the paint finish and wax.
