For steady wiping at low speed, turn the band away
from you to the
LO
position. For high-speed wiping,
turn the band further, to
HI.
To stop the wipers, move
the band to OFF.
The wiper speed may be set 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.
Heavy snow or ice can overload your wiper motor.
A
circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools.
Clear away snow or ice to prevent an overload.
Keep in mind 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 your blades do become
damaged, get new blades or blade inserts.
Windshield Washer
At the top of the turn signal/multifunction lever, there’s
a paddle with the word PUSH on
it.
To
spray washer
fluid on the windshield, push the paddle for less than a
second. The wipers will clear the window and either
stop or return to your preset speed. For more washer
cycles, push and hold the paddle.
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.
Cruise
Control
With cruise control, you can
maintain a speed of about
25
mph
(40
km/h)
or more
without keeping your foot
on the accelerator. This can
really help on long trips.
Cruise control does not work at speeds below about
25
mph
(40
km/h).
When
you
apply your brakes, the cruise control
shuts off.
