11.1 How do I get the headlight washers to work?

The headlights must be on for the washers to work. Pull the windshield washer lever, and hold it for 3 or 4 seconds. The headlight washers will then appear like little alien arms and wash your headlights.

11.4 What are the window "Tricks" I've heard so much about?

There are two window tricks, really.
The first one opens the windows 1/4" when the doors are opened, and raise the windows when the door is closed.
This is because the seals on the car are very tight and make the door easier to close.
The second trick is that the windows can be opened and closed from outside the car.
Put the key in the driver side door lock, and hold it to the left or right to open or close the windows.
