x(Delay):While the lever is in the intermittent
position, turn the intermittent adjust band with this symbol
on it up or down to select a shorter or longer delay
between wiping cycles. To the left of the adjust band are
bars, increasing in size from bottom to top, that indicate
the frequency of the wipes. Smaller bars mean the wipers
movement is less frequent. Larger bars mean the
movement is more frequent.
6(Low Speed):For steady wiping at low speed.
1(High Speed):For wiping at a high speed.
8(Mist):Move the lever all the way down for a single
wiping cycle. Hold it there until the windshield wipers
start; then release. The wipers stop after one wiping
cycle. Hold the lever down longer, for more wipe cycles.
Clear ice and snow from the wiper blades before
using them.
If the wiper blades are frozen to the windshield, carefully
loosen or thaw them. If they become damaged, install
new blades.Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper motor. A circuit
breaker stops the motor until it cools. If the motor gets
stuck, turn the wipers off, clear away the snow or ice, and
then turn the wipers back on.
As an added safety feature, if the wipers are on for
more than 15 seconds, the vehicle’s headlamps turn on
automatically. They turn off 15 seconds after the wipers
are turned off.
Windshield Washer
Press the button at the end of the windshield wiper
lever until the washers begin.
{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 the button is released, the washers stop, but the
wipers continue to wipe about three times or resume
the previous speed.
