Washer fluid

Before anyone says RTFM.. I did.

Is there any way to just mist the windshield with fluid? Not the whole cycle where it sprays twice, then wipes, then sprays twice again? With the salt/slush on our roads you almost have to constantly wash your windshield. I'm going through washer fluid like nobody's business using this cycle every 5 minutes while driving.

When the wipers are on, rather than push the lever to wash the windshield, pull the stalk toward you. The washers will only wash as long as you hold the lever.

Yeah, sounds like you are using the Super Wash function every time.

Thanks guys, I actually figured it out while running to the store about 15 minutes after posting this.

Talk about a freaking brain fart, so simple.
