Windshield Wipers

You can control the windshield wipers by moving the
lever with the wiper symbol on it up or down. This lever
is located on the right side of the steering wheel.

For a single wiping cycle, pull down on 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.

You can set the wiper speed for a long delay or short
delay between wipes. This can be very useful in light
rain or snow. Push the lever up one click to INT
(intermittent), then turn the band, located on the lever, to
adjust the delay time. Turn the band down for a longer
delay, up for a shorter delay. The wiper speed can only
be adjusted when the lever is in the INT position, not in
HI or LO.

Be sure to clear the 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.
