For a single sweep of the windshield,
push the lever up and release it. With interval adjuster: The “INT” band lets
you adjust the wiping time interval when
the wiper lever is in the intermittent posi-
tion (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” on page 293 in
Section 7

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.
