Flash-to-Pass
When the headlamps are off, pull the lever toward you
to momentarily switch on the high beams (to signal
that you are going to pass). When you release the lever,
they will turn off.
Windshield Wipers
You control the windshield wipers by turning the band
marked WIPER.
MIST: 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 cycle. If you want more cycles,
hold the band on mist longer.
Delay: For delayed wiping cycles, 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 LO,
the shorter the delay time.
LO: For steady wiping cycles at low speed, turn the
band away from you to the LO position.
HI: For high-speed wiping, turn the band away from
you to the HI position.
OFF: To stop the wipers, turn the band to OFF.
Remember that damaged wiper blades may prevent you
from seeing well enough to drive safely. To avoid
damage, 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 damaged, get new blades or blade inserts.
Heavy snow or ice can overload your wipers. A circuit
breaker will stop them until the motor cools. Clear away
snow or ice to prevent an overload.
Windshield Washer
To wash your windshield, press and hold the windshield
washer paddle. The washers and wipers will operate.
When you release the paddle, the washers will stop, and
the wipers will continue to operate for two cycles, unless
your wipers were already on. In that case, the wipers will
resume the wiper speed you had selected earlier.

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.
