Flash-To-Pass; Windshield Wiper Lever - Pontiac 2006 Grand Prix Owner's Manual

Flash-to-Pass

This feature allows the use of the high-beam headlamps
to signal the driver in front of you that you want to pass.
Pull and hold the exterior lamps control lever to use this
feature. When this is done, the following will occur:
•
The high-beam headlamps will turn on, while
the headlamps are off, in low-beam, or in Daytime
Running Lamps (DRL) mode. They will stay on
as long as the lever is held in this position. Release
the lever to turn them off.
•
The headlamps will switch to low beam if the
headlamps had been in the high-beam mode.
To return to high-beam, push the lever.
If the vehicle is equipped with the Head-Up
Display (HUD), an arrow will appear on the display to
indicate that the high beams are on.

Windshield Wiper Lever

Be sure to clear ice and snow from the wiper blades
before using them. If they are frozen to the windshield,
gently loosen or thaw them. Damaged wiper blades may
not clear the windshield well, making it harder to see and
drive safely. If the blades do become damaged, install
new blades or blade inserts. For more information, see
Windshield Wiper Blade Replacement on page 5-60.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper motor. A
circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools down.
Clear away snow or ice to prevent an overload.

& (Delay): Push the lever up once to this position to
