Windshield Wipers
Use this lever, located on the right side of the steering
wheel, to operate the windshield wipers.
9(Off): Move the lever to this position to turn off the
windshield wipers.
& (Intermittent): Move the lever to this position for
intermittent operation. When you select this position, the
delay will vary depending on the manually selected delay.
x (Delay): When the lever is in the intermittent
position, turn the intermittent adjust band with this symbol
on it up or down to set for a shorter or longer delay
between wipes. To the left of the adjust band are bars,
increasing in size from bottom to top, that indicate the
frequency of the wipes. Smaller bars mean the wipers
movement is less frequent. Larger bars mean the
movement is more frequent.
6 (Low Speed): Move the lever up to the first
setting past intermittent, for steady wiping at low speed.
1 (High Speed): Move the lever up to the second
setting past intermittent, for wiping at high speed.
8 (Mist): Move the lever all the way down to this
position for a single wiping cycle. Hold it there until the
windshield wipers start; then let go. The windshield
wipers will stop after one wiping cycle. If you want
additional wiping cycles, hold the lever down longer.
Damaged wiper blades may prevent you from seeing
well enough to drive safely. To avoid damage, be sure to
clear ice and snow from the wiper blades before
using them.
If the wiper blades are frozen to the windshield, carefully
loosen or thaw them. If your blades do become
damaged, get new blades or blade inserts.
