Windshield Washer
Windshielr' Wipers
You control the windshield
wipers by turning the band
with the wiper symbol on it.
For a single-wiping cycle,
turn the band to MIST. Hold
it there until the wipers
start, then let go. The wipers
will stop after one wipe. If
you want more wipes, hold
the band on MIST longer.
You can set the wiper speed for
a
long or short delay
between wipes. This can be very useful in light rain or
snow. Turn the band to choose the delay time. The
closer to LOW, the shorter the delay.
For steady wiping at low speed, turn the band away from
you to LOW. For high-speed wiping, turn the band further,
to HIGH. To stop the wipers, move the band to OFF.
Be sure to clear ice and snow from the wiper blades
before using them. If they're frozen to the windshield,
carefully loosen or thaw them. If your blades do become
worn or damaged, get new blades or blade inserts.
At the top of the multifunction lever, there's a paddle
marked with the windshield washer symbol and
PUSH. To spray washer fluid on the windshield,
press the paddle.
The wipers will clear the window and then either stop
or return to your preset speed.

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