6(Delay/Intermittent Speed Sensitive):When
the lever is in the delay position, move the
intermittent adjust band to set for shorter or longer
delay cycles. To the left of the adjust band are
bars that indicate the frequency of the wipes.
Smaller bars mean the wiper movement is less
frequent. Larger bars mean the wiper movement is
more frequent.
During intermittent wiping mode, the delay cycle
time is sensitive to vehicle speed. As the vehicle
speed increases your delay cycle time will decrease
and wiper movement will occur more frequently.

the windshield wipers.
8(Mist):Move the lever all the way down to
mist and release for a single wiping cycle.
The windshield wipers will stop after one wipe and

additional wipes are needed, hold the band on
mist longer.

for more than 15 seconds, the vehicle’s headlamps
will turn on automatically. They will turn off
15 seconds after the wipers are turned off.
