Windshield wipers and washer
To turn on the windshield wipers, move
the lever to the desired setting.
The key must be in the ”ON” position.
Lever position
Speed setting
Position 1Intermittent
Position 2Slow
Position 3Fast
The ”INT TIME” band lets you adjust the
wiping time interval when the wiper lever
is in the intermittent position (position 1).
Twist the band upward to increase the
time between sweeps, and downward to
decrease it. To squirt washer fluid, pull the lever
toward you.
If the windshield wipers are off, they will
operate a couple of times after the washer
squirts.
For instructions on adding washer fluid,
see ”Adding washer fluid” in Section 7
−3.
In freezing weather, warm the windshield
with the defroster before using the washer.
This will help prevent the washer fluid
from freezing on your windshield, which
can block your vision.
NOTICE
Do not operate the wipers if the wind-
shield is dry. It may scratch the
glass.
Rear window wiper and washer
To turn on the rear window wiper, twist
the lever knob upward.
The key must be in the ”ON” position.
Lever position
Speed setting
Position 1Intermittent
Position 2normal
To squirt washer fluid on the rear window,
twist the knob upward or downward as far
as it will go (position 3 or 4). The knob
automatically returns from these positions
after you release it.
For instructions on adding washer fluid,
see ”Adding washer fluid” in Section 7 −3.

NOTICE
Do not operate the rear wiper if the
rear window is dry. It may scratch the
glass.
Rear window defogger
To defog or defrost the rear window,
push the switch.
The key must be in the ”ON” position.
The thin heater wires on the inside of the
rear window will quickly clear the surface.
An indicator light will illuminate to indicate
the defogger is operating.
Push the switch once again to turn the
defogger off.
The system will automatically shut off af-
ter the defogger has operated about 15
minutes. Make sure you turn the defogger off when
the surfaces are clear. Leaving the defog-
ger on for a long time could cause the
battery to discharge, especially during
stop
−and −go driving. The defogger is not
designed for drying rain water or for melt-
ing snow.
NOTICE
When cleaning the inside of the rear
window, be careful not to scratch or
damage the heater wires.
