Windshield Wipers
You control the windshield
wipers by turning the band
with the wiper symbol on it.
(Off): Turn the band on the lever to this symbol to
turn off the windshield wipers.
(Mist): For a single wiping cycle, turn the band to
this symbol. Hold it there until the wipers start, then let
go. The wipers will stop after one cycle. If you want
more cycles, hold the band on mist longer.
You can set the wiper speed for a long or short delay
between wipes. This can be very useful in light rain or
snow. Turn the band to one of the four delay settings to
choose the delay time. The further the band is turned
upward, the longer the delay will be. The further the
band is turned downward, the shorter the delay will be.
(Low Speed): For steady wiping at low speed,
turn the band toward you to the first solid band below
the delay settings.
(High Speed): For high
-
speed wiping, turn the
band further, to the second solid band below the delay
settings. To stop the wipers, move the band to off.
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” in the Index.
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.
