Accessories.
'
Windscreen
wipers, washers and
de-misters
are
fitted,
also
direction
indicators and a car heater,
these being
operated as
under:-
The
windscieen wiper has
two speeds
controlled by a two-position
switch
(see Fig. 1).
Operate
by turning
switch
knob to
the
right:
the
first
position
gives
SLOW,
further
turning
to
the right to the
second
position
gives FAST.
Hard over to the left is OFF.
The
higher speed of
wiping
is intended
for
use during
heavy
rain.
It
should
not be used in heavy
snow or
with a dry or
drying wind-
screen,
i.e. when
the load
on
the
motor is in
excess of normal.
The
windscreen wiper motor is
fitted
with
an automatic
switch
which breaks the electrical circuit if the motor overheats; and this
may
occur if the high
speed
position
is
used when the windscreen
is
nearly
dry, causing a
high resistance to the blade movement.
When
the circuit breaks, the
wiridscreen wiper will stop
but
will restart
if
allowed
to cool
for
about
ro minutes, meanwhile the
switch should be
turned
to the slow speed
or
"off"
position
to
prevent
further over-
loading
unless the rain
is
heavy.
For
washing the windscreen, two small
jets
are arranged on
the
scuttle to squirt
fluid
on
to
the windscreens
within the traversing
arc
of the
wipers.
A press
button on the
facia
should
be
depressed when
required; on releasing,
two
jets
of fluid
will
be
directed
on to the
wind-
screen.
The
screen wipers should then be switched
on
to complete
the cleansing.
For
de-misting the windscreen, warm
air from
a special
heater
under the front
wing
is
taken
through
suitable ducting
to
vents
in the
capping
rail.
The forward motion of the car is normally sufficient to
ensure
adequate,
de-misting. Under severe
conditions, switch on the booster
motor
(18,
Fig.
1
)
.
The
raised arm trafficator type of indicator is
fitted,
and the
control
switch
is mounted on the
centre
of the capping
rail
as
shown
in Fig. r.
A
car heater is
fitted
in the
front
compartment
under
the seat.
A
push-pull
switch
on the facia
(3,
Fig.
2)
operates a
valve to
control the
water
supply
to the heater. A rheostat
switch
on the
facia board (21, Fig. 1
)
controls
the
fan
for
air circulation.
