Windshield Washer - Pontiac 2005 Montana Owner's Manual

DELAY: Turn the band away from you to one of the
five sensitivity settings between OFF and LOW, to
choose the delayed wiping cycle. The further the band
is turned toward LOW, the shorter the delay will be.
Use this setting for light rain or snow.
Remember that damaged wiper blades may prevent you
from seeing well enough to drive safely. To avoid
damage, clear ice and snow from the wiper blades
before using them. If they are frozen to the windshield,
carefully loosen or thaw them. If your blades do
become damaged, get new blades or blade inserts.
Heavy snow or ice can overload your wipers. A circuit
breaker will stop them until the motor cools. Clear away
snow or ice to prevent an overload.

Windshield Washer

L
(Windshield Washer): Press and hold the
windshield washer paddle with this symbol on it to wash
your windshield. The washers and wipers will operate.
When you release the paddle, the washers will stop, and
the wipers will continue to operate for two cycles,
unless your wipers had already been on. In that case,
the wipers will resume the wiper speed you had
selected earlier.

CAUTION:
In freezing weather, do not use your washer
until the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the
washer fluid can form ice on the windshield,
blocking your vision.
