WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND WASHERS

The windshield wiper/washer control lever is lo-
cated on the right side of the steering column.
The front wipers are operated by rotating a switch,
located on the end of the lever. For information on the
rear wiper/washer, refer to "Rear Window Features" in
"Understanding The Features Of Your Vehicle".
Wiper/Washer Control Lever
• Turn the windshield wipers off when driving
through an automatic car wash. Damage to the
windshield wipers may result if the wiper control
is left in any position other than off.
• In cold weather, always turn off the wiper switch
and allow the wipers to return to the "Park" posi-
tion 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.
• Always remove any buildup of snow that prevents
the windshield wiper blades from returning to the
off position. If the windshield wiper control is
turned off and the blades cannot return to the off
position, damage to the wiper motor may occur.
