Windshield Wipers
To turn on the wipers, press the wiper control lever down 
one level for intermittent, two levels for low, or three levels for 
high	speed.	Return	the	lever	to	the	“OFF”	position	to	stop	
the wipers. For a single wipe, move the lever up. To spray 
washer fluid, pull and hold the lever toward you. 
To operate the rear wiper, rotate the end of the knob upward 
to the intermittent, continuous, or wash position. When the 
rear wiper is off, rotate the knob downward to wash and 
wipe the rear window.
Daytime Running Lights
Daytime	running	lights	are 	standard	on	your	vehicle.	Only	a	
reduced brightness high beam will be automatically turned 
on when the engine has started and the parking brake is 
fully	released	and	the	light	switch	is	in	the	“OFF”	or	“
”	
position. The brightness of the illumination of the high beam 
headlights is reduced by the daytime running light system. 
You must always switch on your headlights when it’s dark 
outside by turning the light switch to the 
 position.
