2004 CHEVROLET EPICA windshield wipers

Windshield Wiper Lever
Windshield Wipers
Use this lever located on the right side of the steering
wheel to operate the windshield wipers. The ignition
must be turned to ON to operate the windshield wipers.
HI (High Speed):Move the lever to this position for
wiping at high speed.
LO (Low Speed):Move the lever to this position for
steady wiping at low speed.INT (Intermittent):Move the lever to this position to
choose a delayed wiping cycle. Turn the band on the
windshield wiper lever down for a longer delay, or up for a
shorter delay between wipes. The wiper speed can only
be adjusted when the lever is in the INT position.
OFF:Move the lever to this position to turn off the
windshield wipers.
Misting Function
Move the lever toward, but not completely into, the
INT position for a single wiping cycle. Hold it there until
the windshield wipers start; then let go. The windshield
wipers will stop after one wipe. If you want more
wipes, hold the band toward INT longer.
Remember that damaged wiper blades may prevent
you from seeing well enough to drive safely. To avoid
damage, be sure to clear ice and snow from the
wiper blades before using them.
If they are frozen to the windshield, carefully loosen
or thaw them. If your blades do become damaged, get
new blades or blade inserts.
Heavy snow or ice can overload your wiper motor.
A circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools.
Clear away snow or ice to prevent an overload.

Windshield Washer
To wash your windshield, pull the windshield wiper/
washer lever toward you with the ignition turned to ON.
{CAUTION:
In freezing weather, do not use your washer
until the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the
washer uid can form ice on the windshield,
blocking your vision.
When you release the lever, the washers will stop, but
the wipers will continue to wipe for about three cycles
and will either stop or will resume at the speed you were
using before.
Cruise Control
If your vehicle has cruise control, you can maintain
a speed of about 18 mph (29 km/h) or more without
keeping your foot on the accelerator. This can really help
on long trips. Cruise control does not work at speeds
below 18 mph (29 km/h).When you apply your brakes, the cruise control shuts off.
{CAUTION:
Cruise control can be dangerous where you
can not drive safely at a steady speed. So, do
not use your cruise control on winding roads
or in heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery
roads. On such roads, fast changes in tire
traction can cause needless wheel spinning,
and you could lose control. Do not use cruise
control on slippery roads.
If your vehicle is in cruise control when the optional
traction control system begins to limit wheel spin,
the cruise control will automatically disengage.
SeeTraction Control System (TCS) on page 4-8.
When road conditions allow you to safely use it again,
you may turn the cruise control back on.
