I haven't heard of having to do anything with the washers. You do know the headlight washers only work with the headlights actually on.

Almost every vehicle with auto up/down windows need to be reset after disconnecting the battery. The other thing you will need to reset is the sunroof, or it won't auto close properly. The instructions are in your owner's manual.

The headlights...no reset required..as already posted, they only work when the headlights are on. They will also only clean once per engine run cycle in conjunction with the windshield washer (i.e. they will spray one time, the first time you use the windshield washer for each driving cycle). After that, you need to use the manual wash button.
