Clock
Reset the clock, by pulling out
the knob and turning the hands
clockwise if slow, counterclockwise
if fast. This will, if the clock error
is five minutes or more, automati-
cally compensate for time gain or
lag. Several resettings, several days
apart, may be needed to propertly
adjust the clock mechanism. Have
your clock cleaned and oiled by a
competent clock serviceman at
least every two years.
Cigarette Lighter
The cigarette lighter is located
on the instrument panel face . To
operate, push it in. When it be-
comes heated, it automatically pops
out ready for use.
Windshield Wiper and
Washer
The windshield wiping system
operates at two speeds and is de-
signed to wipe clear specific areas
of the windshield under most in-
clement weather conditions. The
windshield wipers work electrically
and are not affected by engine op-
eration.
Push the control lever to the
right to start the electric wind-
shield wiper. The two-speed elec-
tric wiper has both a "low" and a
"high" speed position.

Pressing the control will send a
measured amount of water or other
cleaning agent onto the windshield
and will also cause the wiper lever
to move thus starting the wiper
motor. The wiper will continue to
operate until manually turned off
at the wiper lever.
Fill the washer jar only % full
during the winter to allow for ex-
pansion if the temperature should
fall low enough to freeze the solu-
tion.
• Check washer fluid level regu-
larly-do it frequently when the
weather is bad.
• Use a fluid such as GM OPTI-
KLEEN to prevent freezing
damage, and to provide better
cleaning.
• Do not use radiator anti-freeze
in windshield washer; it could
cause paint damage.
• In cold weather, warm the wind-
shield with defrosters before
