Windshield Wipers
You control the windshield wipers by turning the
band with the wiper symbol on it.
8(Mist): Turn the band to mist for a single wiping
cycle. Hold it there until the wipers start. Then let
go. The wipers stop after one wipe. For more wipe
cycles, hold the band longer on mist.
6 (Delay): Turn the band to choose the delay time
between wipe cycles. The wiper speed can be
set for a long or short delay between wipes. The
closer the band is set to the top of the lever,
the shorter the delay.
6 (Low Speed): Turn the band away from
you to the first solid band past the delay settings
for steady wiping at low speed.
1 (High Speed): For high-speed wiping, turn
the band further, to the second solid band past the
delay settings.
9(Off): To stop the wipers, move the band
to off.
Clear ice and snow from the wiper blades before
using them. If they are frozen to the windshield,
carefully loosen or thaw them. If the blades
become worn or damaged, replace with new
blades or blade inserts.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper motor. A
circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools. Clear
away snow or ice to prevent an overload.
Your vehicle has wiper-activated headlamps.
After the windshield wipers have completed
eight wipe cycles within four minutes, the
headlamps automatically turn on. See Wiper
Activated Headlamps on page 190 for more
information.
