4T: Warning Lights & Alarms, Wipers & Washers

See the Safety Panel, Page 4.48.

4T1: Defrosters

There is one DC defroster for the starboard windshield. It is powered by plugging

into

the

2 volt

outlet at the lower helm.

4T2: Windshield Wiper/Washer Control Panel

The windshield wipers are controlled by

the three knobs on the safety panel above the

helm to starboard. Turning the knob turns on the

wiper, the further you turn it clockwise the faster

it runs.

They can also be set to intermittent

cycles.

The three knobs on the bottom of the safety panel above the lower helm

control the windshield washers/wipers.
