Windshield Wipers
WIPER:Turn the band on the turn signal lever to
control the wipers.
MIST:Turn the band toward you to MIST and then
release it for a single wiping cycle. For more cycles, hold
the band on MIST longer.
LO or HI:Turn the band away from you to either LO
(low speed) or to HI (high speed), depending on
the wiper speed you want.
Delay:Turn the band to one of the delay positions to
set the wiper speed for a long or a short delay between
wipes. The closer you move it to LO, the shorter the
delay.OFF:Turn the band to OFF to turn off the wipers.
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 the blades do become
damaged, get new blades or blade inserts.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper motor. A
circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools. Clear
away snow or ice to prevent an overload.
Your vehicle is equipped with wiper-activated headlamps.
After the windshield wipers have been on for
approximately six seconds, the headlamps will
automatically turn on. See
Wiper Activated HeadlampsunderExterior Lamps on page 3-15for more information.
RainsenseŸ II Wipers
If your vehicle has this feature, the moisture sensor is
mounted on the interior side of the windshield behind the
rearview mirror. It is used to automatically operate the
wipers by monitoring the amount of moisture build-up on
the windshield. Wipes occur as needed to clear the
windshield depending on driving conditions and the
sensitivity setting. In light rain or snow, fewer wipes will
occur. In heavy rain or snow, wipes will occur more
frequently. The RainsenseŸ wipers operate in a delay
mode as well as a continuous low or high speed as
needed. If the system is left on for long periods of time,
occasional wipes may occur without any moisture on the
windshield. This is normal and indicates that the
RainsenseŸ system is activated.
