2000 LINCOLN LS Owners Manual

Push the control on the end of the
stalk to activate washer. Push and
hold for a longer wash cycle. The
washer will automatically shut off
after ten seconds of continuous use.
When the washer system senses low fluid in the washer bottle and the
control is pushed to activate the system, washer fluid will spray onto the
windshield (if the reservoir still has fluid in it), but the windshield wiper
will not automatically cycle if low fluid is sensed. The wiper must be
engaged by manually selecting a position on the wiper/washer control.
This is to let you know that the washer fluid is low or empty and needs
to be refilled. Refer to theWindshield Washer Fluidsection of the
Maintenance and Carechapter.
Moisture sensitive wipers (if equipped)
When the windshield wiper control
is set to INT and the intermittent
position is AUTO, moisture sensitive
front wipers automatically activate
when moisture accumulates on the
windshield. When the ignition is
turned to Off and then back to Run
and the wiper setting has remained
in AUTO position, the wipers may
cycle one time.
The moisture sensitive wiper feature should be turned off before
entering a car wash.

The steering column can be
adjusted manually by moving the
four-way rocker adjustment control
located on the multi-function
control below the turn signal/wiper
control stalk. The control will adjust
the column as long as held or until
the column reaches the end of
travel.
The telescope function is adjusted
by moving the control toward the
driver to telescope out and moving
the control toward the instrument
panel to telescope in.
The tilt function is adjusted by moving the control up to tilt up and
moving the control down to tilt down.
The steering column positions are automatically saved and can be
recalled along with the vehicle personality features when a memory
position is selected through the remote entry transmitter or memory
switch on the driver's door (if equipped with memory feature).
During easy exit (if activated through the Message Center) operation,
the column will move to the full in and up position. When the key is
inserted into the ignition switch, the column will return to the previous
setting. When you remove the key, the column will move away.
If the steering column adjustment control is pressed during memory
recall it will cancel the automatic operation and the column will respond
to manual adjustment of the control.
