x (Delay Adjustment): Move the lever to this
position to choose a delayed wiping cycle.
Turn the intermittent adjust band down for a longer
delay or up for a shorter delay. The wiper speed
can only be manually adjusted when the lever is in
this position.
9(Off): Move the lever to this position to turn off
the windshield wipers.
8(Mist): Move the lever all the way down to
mist and release for a single wiping cycle.
The windshield wipers will stop after one wipe. If
you want more wipes, hold the band on mist
longer.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the wipers. If this
occurs, a circuit breaker will stop the wipers
until the motor cools. So, be sure to clear any ice
and snow from the windshield wiper blades
before using them. If the wiper blades are frozen
to the windshield, carefully loosen them or
warm the windshield before turning the wipers on.
If your blades do become worn or damaged,
get new blades or blade inserts.
Windshield Washer
The lever on the right side of the steering column
also controls the windshield washer. There is a
button at the end of the lever. To spray washer fluid
on the windshield, press the button and hold it. The
washer will spray until you release the button. The
wipers will continue to clear the window for about
six seconds after the button is released and then
stop or return to your preset speed.
{CAUTION:
In freezing weather, do not use your
washer until the windshield is warmed.
Otherwise the washer fluid can form ice
on the windshield, blocking your vision.
If the fluid in the windshield washer fluid reservoir is
low, the message CHECK WASHER FLUID will
appear on the Driver Information Center (DIC)
display. It will take 15 seconds after the bottle is
refilled for this message to turn off. For information
on the correct washer fluid to use, see Windshield
Washer Fluid on page 359 and Recommended
Fluids and Lubricants on page 443.
