Windshield Wiper Lever - Pontiac 2005 Grand Prix Owner's Manual

Windshield Wiper Lever

N (Windshield Wipers): The lever with this symbol,
located on the right side of the steering column,
operates the windshield wipers.
9 (Off): Lower the lever to its original position to turn
the wipers off.
& (Delay): Push the lever up once to this position to
set a delay between wiping cycles. Turn the delay
adjustment band to set the length of the delay.
x (Delay Adjustment): Turn the band, located on
the left of the windshield wiper lever, to set the length of
the delay between wiper cycles when using the delay
feature. There are five delay adjustment settings.
Turn the band up to make the delays shorter in between
wiper cycles. Turn the band down to make the delays
longer between wiper cycles. The windshield wiper lever
must be in delay for this feature to work.
6 (Low Speed): Push the lever up to the second
position for steady wiping cycles at a slow speed.
1 (High Speed): Push the lever up to the third
position for steady wiping cycles at a high speed.
7 (Mist): For a single wiping cycle, push the lever
down once and let go. The wipers will stop after one
cycle. For additional cycles, hold the lever down.
Be sure to clear ice and snow from the wiper blades
before using them. If they are frozen to the windshield,
gently loosen or thaw them. Damaged wiper blades may
not clear the windshield well, making it harder to see and
drive safely. If the blades do become damaged, install
new blades or blade inserts. For more information, see
Windshield Wiper Blade Replacement on page 5-57.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper motor. A
circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools down.
Clear away snow or ice to prevent an overload.
