If your headlights are on, but on low beam: The
system works normally. Just pull the lever until it clicks.
Your headlights will shift to high beam and stay there.

Windshield Wipers
You control the windshield wipers by moving the lever
marked
“WIPER.”
For a single wiping cycle, move the lever down to
“MIST.” Hold it down until the wipers start, then let go.
The wipers will stop after one cycle. If you want more
cycles, hold the lever down to “MIST” longer.
i
For steady wiping at low speed, move the lever to the
“LOW’ position. For high speed wiping, move the lever
further, up to “HIGH” To stop the wipers, move the
lever to “OFF.”
Low Speed Delay Wipers (Option)
You can set the wiper speed for a long or short delay
between wipes. This can be very useful in light rain or
snow. Move the lever to DELAY then, turn the band to
choose the amount of delay.
I A CAUTION:
Damaged wiper blades may prevent you from
seeing well enough
in a storm to drive safely. To
avoid damage, be sure to clear 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.

wet suddenly when your reflexes are tuned for driving
on dry pavement.
The heavier the rain, the harder it is to see. Even if your
windshield wiper bladesare in good shape, a heavy rain
can make it harder to see road signs and traffic signals,
pavement markings, the edge of the road, and even
people walking. Road spray can often be worse
for
vision than rain, especially if it comes from a dirty road.
So it is wise to keep your wiping equipment in good
shape and keep your windshield washer tank filled.
Replace your windshield wiper inserts when they
show
signs of streaking or missing areas on the windshield, or
when strips of rubber start to separate from the inserts.

Don't use abrasive cleaners on glass, because they may
cause scratches. Avoid placing decals on the inside rear
window, since they may have to be scraped off later. If
abrasive cleaners are used on the inside of the rear
window, an electric defogger element may be damaged.
Any temporary license should not be attached across the
defogger grid.

Windshield Cleaner, Bon-Ami Powders
(GM Part No.
1050011). The windshield is clean if beads do not form

rinse the blade with water.
Wiper blades should be checked on
a regular basis and
replaced when worn.
