WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND
WASHERS

The windshield wiper/washer control lever is
located on the right side of the steering column.
The front wipers are operated by rotating a
switch, located at the end of the lever.

Refer to “Rear Window Wiper/Washer” in
this section for further information on using
the rear window wiper/washer.Windshield Wiper/Washer Lever
Windshield Wiper Operation
Rotate the end of the lever upward to the
second detent past the intermittent settings
for low-speed wiper operation. Rotate the end of the lever upward to the third detent
past the intermittent settings for high-speed
wiper operation.
NOTE:
Do not operate the windshield wipers with
the blades lifted from the windshield.
Intermittent Wiper System
Use the intermittent wiper when weather
conditions make a single wiping cycle, with
a variable pause between cycles, desirable.
Rotate the end of the lever to the first detent
position for one of four intermittent settings.
The delay cycle can be set anywhere between
1 to 18 seconds.
NOTE:
The wiper delay times depend on vehicle
speed. If the vehicle is moving less than
10 mph (16 km/h), delay times will be
doubled.
Windshield Washers
To use the washer, pull the lever toward you
and hold while spray is desired. If the lever
is pulled while in the delay range, the wiper
will start and continue to operate for two or
three wipe cycles after the lever is released.
Then, the intermittent interval previously
selected will resume.
If the lever is pulled while in the off position,
the wipers will operate for two or three wipe
cycles. Then, the wipers will turn off.
CAUTION!
In cold weather, always turn off the wiper
switch and allow the wipers to return to
the park position before turning off the
engine. If the wiper switch is left on and
the wipers freeze to the windshield,
damage to the wiper motor may occur
when the vehicle is restarted.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the
windshield could lead to a collision. You
might not see other vehicles or other
obstacles. To avoid sudden icing of the
windshield during freezing weather, warm
the windshield with the defroster before
and during windshield washer use.

four seconds. The light should then turn off
unless the parking brake is applied or a brake
fault is detected. If the light does not illumi-
nate, have the light inspected by an autho -
rized dealer.
The light also will turn on when the parking
brake is applied with the ignition switch in
the ON/RUN position.
NOTE:
This light shows only that the parking brake
is applied. It does not show the degree of
brake application.

illuminate the light after engine start. The
vehicle should be serviced if the light stays
on through several typical driving styles. In
most situations, the vehicle will drive
normally and will not require towing.
When the engine is running, the MIL may
flash to alert serious conditions that could
lead to immediate loss of power or severe
catalytic converter damage. The vehicle
should be serviced by an authorized dealer
as soon as possible if this occurs. WARNING!
A malfunctioning catalytic converter, as
referenced above, can reach higher
temperatures than in normal operating
