Windshield Wipers
The windshield wipers are controlled by the lever
located on the right side of the steering column.
The windshield wipers have these positions:
OFF: Turn the knob at the end of the windshield wiper
lever to turn off the wipers.
INT (Intermittent): Turn the knob to the intermittent
setting to delay the wiper speed. This can be very useful
in light rain or snow. When you turn the knob to this
setting, you can also set the wiper speed. See the
following text for more information.
INT (Intermittent) TIME: Turn this band on the
windshield wiper lever to set the delay time between
wipes. The closer the band is turned to F (fast),
the shorter the delay will be. The closer the band is
turned to S (slow), the longer the delay will be.
LO (Low): Turn the knob to this setting to operate the
windshield wipers at a low speed.
HI (High): Turn the knob to this setting to operate the
windshield wipers at a high speed.
Be sure to clear ice and snow from the wiper blades
before using them. If they are frozen to the windshield,
carefully loosen or thaw them. If your blades do
become worn or damaged, get new blades or blade
inserts. For more information, see Windshield Wiper
Blade Replacement on page 5-56.
Heavy snow or ice can overload your wipers. The
windshield wiper motor is protected from overload by a
circuit breaker and a fuse. If the motor overheats
due to heavy snow or ice, the wiper will stop until the
motor cools. Although the circuit is protected from
electrical overload, overload due to heavy snow or ice
may cause wiper linkage damage. Always clear ice and
heavy snow from the windshield before using your
windshield wipers.
