GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 73
The rear wiper/washer controls are located on the wind-
shield wiper/washer lever on the right side of the steering
column. The rear wiper has different operation modes:
• Intermittent mode
• In Synchronous mode (at half speed of the front window
wiper) when the front window wiper is operating.
• Continuous mode
• Vehicle in REVERSE: If the front wiper is active and the
REVERSE gear is selected, the wiper will turn on for one
wipe.
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
the wiper is in the off position, the wiper will operate
for several wipe cycles, then turn off.
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 intermit-
tent interval previously selected.
NOTE:
As a protective measure, the pump will stop if the switch is
held for more than 20 to 30 seconds. Once the lever is
released the pump will resume normal operation.
