SERVICE INFORMATION

There's an error in the '07 and '08 Fit Quick Start Guides (QSGs) that we thought you ought to know about. They say that when you turn the rear window wiper/washer switch to ON , "the rear wiper sweeps two times and then operates in intermittent mode."

Truth is, there's no intermittent mode for the rear window wiper. You've got two choices: OFF and ON . When you turn the switch to ON , the wiper sweeps back and forth until you turn the switch to OFF . The intermittent mode applies just to the windshield wipers.

We'll fix this error in future reprints of these QSGs.
