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 will stop after one wipe. Hold the band
on mist longer, if more wipes are needed.
N (Delay): The wiper speed can be set for long
or short delays between wipes. This can be very useful
in light rain or snow. Turn the band to choose the
delay time. The closer to the top of the lever, the shorter
the delay.
6 (Low Speed): For steady wiping at low speed,
turn the band away from you to the first solid position
past the delay settings.
1 (High Speed): For high-speed wiping, turn the
band to the second solid position past the delay settings.
9(Off): Move the band to off, to stop the wipers.
Be sure to clear ice and snow from the wiper blades
before using them. If they are frozen to the windshield,
carefully loosen or thaw them. If your blades do
become worn or damaged, get new blades or blade
inserts.
Windshield wipers work in all power modes, except
when set to LOCK. After the engine is turned off, wipers
will work in Retained Accessory Power (RAP) mode
until a door is opened. See Retained Accessory Power
(RAP) on page 2-20.
Windshield Washer
L (Washer Fluid): There is a paddle marked with the
windshield washer symbol at the top of the multifunction
lever. To spray washer fluid on the windshield, push the
paddle. The wipers will clear the window and then either
stop or return to your preset speed.
{CAUTION:
In freezing weather, do not use your washer
until the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the
washer fluid can form ice on the windshield,
blocking your vision.
