Press the knob on the end of the switch lever to operate the windscreen washer.
When the windscreen is dirty, operate the washer before setting the wipers in
motion.
The washer reservoir should be filled with a mixture of water and UNIPART
Screen Wash solvent. It is recommended that UNIPART 'Four Seasons' Screen
Wash is added to prevent the water freezing in cold weather. On no account
should radiator anti-freeze or methylated spirits (denatured alcohol) be used in
the windscreen washer.
Move the switch lever down to operate the windscreen wipers at slow speed (3);
further movement in the same direction will operate the wipers at fast speed (4).
The wiper blades park automatically when the switch lever is returned to the off
position.
Move the lever towards the steering-wheel to engage overdrive; move the lever
away from the steering-wheel to return to direct drive. For operating instructions
see 'RUNNING INSTRUCTIONS'.
The horn is sounded by pressing the centre motif of the steering-wheel.
The switch is self-cancelling and operates the indicators only when the ignition
is switched on. Move the lever to position (8) to operate the left-hand direction
indicators and to position (9) to operate the right-hand indicators. A visual
warning of a front or rear bulb failure is given when after switching on an indi-
cator, the warning lamp and the serviceable bulb on the affected side give a
continuous light.
With the headlamps switched on at the lighting switch, move the lever down away
from the steering-wheel to operate the high-beam ( 1 1 ) .
Return the lever to the midway position (10) to dip the beams.
Lift the lever towards the steering-wheel (12) to flash the headlamp high-beams
irrespective of whether the lighting switch is on or off.
