Windshield
Wipers
I
You control the windshield wipers by turning the band
marked WIPER. For a single wiping cycle, turn the band
to
MIST. Hold it there until the wipers start, then let
go.
The
wipers will stop after one cycle. If you want more
cycles,
hold
the band
on
MIST longer.
For
steady wiping at low speed, turn the band to
LO.
For
high-speed wiping, turn the band further,
to
HI.
To
stop
the wipers, turn the band to OFF.
You can set the wiper speed for a long or short delay
between wipes. This
can
be very
useful
in light rain or
snow. Turn the band to choose the delay time. The
closer
to
LO,
the shorter the delay.
Be sure to clear ice and snow from the wiper blades
before using them. If they're frozen
to
the windshield,
carefully loosen or thaw them. If your blades do become
damaged, get new blades or blade inserts.
Heavy snow or ice can overload your wipers.
A
circuit
breaker will stop them until the motor cools. Clear away
snow or ice to prevent an overload.
