Windshield Wipers And Washers - Maserati Ghibli 2016 Owner's Manual

Windshield Wipers and
Washers
The multifunction lever operates the
windshield wipers and washer when
the ignition switch is placed in RUN or
ACC position. The multifunction lever
is located on the left side of the
steering column.
A low fluid level of windshield
washers is indicated by the indicator
light and by the message on the
instrument cluster.
To refill the fluid, see "Maintenance
Procedures" in section 7.
Windshield Wipers
• Rotate the end of the multifunction
lever to one of the four settings to
activate the automatic intermittent
setting (see "Rain Sensing Wipers"
paragraph in this chapter).
• For low speed wiper operation
(stable position "LO"): rotate the
end of the multifunction control
lever forward to the first trigger
after the intermittent setting.
• Rotate to the second trigger after
the intermittent setting for
high-speed (stable position HI) wiper
operation.
• Rotate the end of the lever
downward to the "MIST" position to
activate a single wipe cycle. The
Understanding the Vehicle
wipers will continue to operate until
you release the multifunction lever.
• To turn the wipers off rotate the
lever to "OFF".
CAUTION!
• Turn the windshield wipers off when
driving through an automatic car
wash. The windshield wipers may be
damaged 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 position before
turning off the engine. If the wiper
switch is left on and the wipers
freeze to the windshield, the wiper
motor may be damaged 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, the
wiper motor may be damaged.
