Windshield Wiper/Washer Lever
(with intermittent wiper operation)
The windshield wiper/washer switch has se-
ven positions:
1 - Low speed
2 - Normal speed
3 - High speed
4 - Intermittent wiper operation
5 - Windshield washers
6 - Windshield washers and wipers
7 - Headlight washers
The time intervals can be set at the control
element to the right of the ignition lock.
Pulling the lever from its basic position
towards the steering wheel activates the
windshield washer pump in the first stage
(switch position 5) and the windshield wipers
in the second stage (switch position 6).
The electric windshield washer system can be operated by pulling the lever toward the
steering wheel from any wiper position.
When the ignition is switched on, the washer
nozzles are heated, depending on the outdoor temperature. Nevertheless, a commercial windshield anti-freeze solution should be
added to the windshield washer water during
cold weather conditions.
Avoid running the wiper blades over a dry
windshield to p
revent scratching the glass. Spray on washer fluid first. A scratched
windshield will reduce visibility.
Always loosen blades frozen to glass
before operating wipers to prevent damage to wiper motor.
WARNING
Worn or dirty wiper blades will reduce
visibility, making driving hazardous. Clean
blades regularly to remove road film and
carwash wax buildup. Use an alcohol base
cleaning solution, a lint free cloth and wipe lengthwise.
Clean all inside and outside window glass
regularly. In vehicles without Securiflex
windshields use an alcohol base cleaning
solution and wipe dry with a lint free or a
chamois cloth.
In vehicles with Sekuriflex windshields, the plastic coating on the inside of the
windshield must not have gummed labels
put on it or be cleaned using aggressive
agents or dry methods. If very dirty, it can
be cleaned with benzine. Make certain that
the plastic coating is not damaged in
cleaning by hard objects such as jewelry
or wristwatches.
