NOTE:
The wiper delay times depend on vehicle speed.
If the vehicle is moving less than 10 mph
(16 km/h), delay times will be doubled.
Windshield Washers
To use the washer, pull the lever toward you
and hold while spray is desired. If the lever is
pulled while in the delay range, the wiper will
start and continue to operate for two or three
wipe cycles after the lever is released. Then,
the intermittent interval previously selected
will resume.
If the lever is pulled while in the off position,
the wipers will operate for two or three wipe
cycles. Then, the wipers will turn off.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the wind-
shield could lead to a collision. You might
not see other vehicles or other obstacles.
To avoid sudden icing of the windshield
during freezing weather, warm the wind-
shield with the defroster before and during
windshield washer use.
Mist Feature
Push down on the wiper lever to activate a
single wipe to clear off road mist or spray
from a passing vehicle. As long as the lever is
held down, the wipers will continue to oper-
ate.
NOTE:
The mist feature does not activate the washer
pump; therefore, no washer fluid will be
sprayed on the windshield. The wash func-
tion must be used in order to spray the
windshield with washer fluid.
Rear Window Wiper/Washer —
If Equipped
A rotary switch on the center portion of the
control lever (located on the right side of the
steering column) controls the operation of the
rear wiper/washer function.
Rotate the switch upward to the first detent
position for rear wiper operation.
Rotate the switch upward past the first detent
to activate the rear washer. The washer pump
and the wiper will continue to operate as long
as the switch is held. Upon release, the wiper
will cycle two to three times before returning
to the set position.
If the rear wiper is operating when the igni-
tion is turned to the LOCK position, the wiper
will automatically return to the “park” posi-
tion. When the vehicle is restarted, the wiper
will resume function at whichever position
the switch is set at.
