WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND WASHERS
The single speed (or optional
two·
speed) parallel
acting wipers are operated by means of the wiper con-
trol
knob
on the dash. Turning clockwise on this wiper
control
knob
will
start the wiper motor. The optionol two
speed
wipers have two
switch
positions,
"low"
and "Hi".
A fully counter-clockwise turn of the knob turns off either
wiper.
Exposure to the elements tends to
"wear
out" the
rubber in the wiper blades. Check the blades periodically
and replace them whenever they show signs of streaky
or otherwise
poor
wiping action.
Pres~ing
once on the accessory windshield washer
button
will
cause the washer to squirt a measured amount
of water or other cleaning agent onto the glass and
will
at the some
time
turn on the wiper motor. The wiper must
then be manually turned off, when the washing process is
completed, by means of the wiper control knob.
Water or
cleaning
agent needed for operation of
the accessory windshield washers is carried in a plastic
water bag under the dash panel. It is attached by means
of three hooks to the fire wall. To flll with water or solvent:
remove the bag
fro~
the hooks, drop to where the cap
13
may be unlocked and removed, fill the bog, replace the
cap and reinstall on
the
three
hooks.
Keep the washer
bag filled with a solution of water and a suitable
solvent.
G. M. Part
No.
988299, Windshield Washer Anti-Freeze
and Solvent, is recommended for use
in
the Corvair

ANTI-FREEZE SOlUTION WHICH CONTAINS METHANOl.
Fill the washer bag only

the
solution freezes. In freezing weather, pre-warm the
windshield using the heater defrosters before using the
washers.
