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 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 intermit-
tent 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 re-
leased, 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 to 30 sec-
onds. Once the lever is released the pump will
resume normal operation.
