54 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
REAR WINDOW WIPER/WASHER
The rear wiper/washer controls are located on the
windshield wiper/washer lever on the right side of
the steering column. The rear wiper/washer is
operated by rotating a switch, located at the
middle of the lever.
Rear Wiper/Washer Control
Rotate the center portion of the
lever upward to the first detent for
intermittent operation and to the
second detent for continuous rear wiper
operation.
To use the washer, push the lever
forward and hold while spray is
desired. If the lever is pushed while in
the intermittent setting, the wiper will
turn on and operate for several wipe cycles after
the end of the lever is released, and then
resume the intermittent interval previously
selected.
If the lever is pushed while the wiper is in the off
position, the wiper will operate for several wipe
cycles, then turn off.
NOTE:
As a protective measure, the pump will stop if
the switch is held for more than 20 seconds.
Once the lever is released the pump will resume
normal operation.
If the rear wiper is operating when the ignition is
placed in the OFF position, the wiper will
automatically return to the “park” position.
