2-20 STARTING AND OPERATING
• To momentarily operate wipers (to remove road splash, etc.)
depress control switch
to
first detent. Hold in this position for as
many wipes as desired.
NOTICE:
If
your vehicle
is
equipped with
the
optional
"Arctic
Wiper
Blades
",
these blades should only be used
at
temperatures below 40°F
(4°C).
• Check the washer fluid level regularly--do it often when the
weather
is
bad.
• Use a fluid such as
GM
Optikleen to help prevent freezing damage,
and for better cleaning.
• Do
1'10t
use radiator antifreeze
in
the windshield washer; it could
cause paint damage.
•
In
cold weather, warm the windshield with the defrosters before
using the washer--lO help prevent icing that
may
block the driver's
vision.
• Clear snow
andice
from the hood
and
air inlet in front of the
windshield. This helps the heater and defroster
work
better and
lowers the chance
of
fogging on the inside
of
thewindshield.
• Run the blower on
"High"
for a
few
moments before driving off.
This helps clear the intake ducts
of
snow and further lessens the
chance
of
fogging on the inside
of
the windshield.
CONTROLLED CYCLE WINDSHIELD WIPERS
The optional controIled cycle windshield
wipers offer,
in
addition to
the
"OFF",
"LOW"
and
"HIGH"
modes
of
the
standard wiper system, an intermittent
mode which provides a variable delay
between the strokes
of
the wipers.
This delay can be varied from 2 to
12
seconds
by
positioning the
ON-OFF
switch
to the desired position between
OFF
and
LOW.
The wash function has a separate button
on
the switch. When the wash button
is
pushed, the motor goes to Low speed
(except when High speed mode
is
already
selected)and
the washer pump
is
energized.
The
pump operates as long
as the button
is
depressed. When the button
is
released, the wipers take a
couple more strokes, then return.to the selected wipe mode.
