GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 51
WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND WASHERS
The windshield wiper/washer controls are
located on the multifunction lever on the left
side of the steering column. The multifunction
lever operates the windshield wipers and
washer when the ignition is placed in the ACC or
ON/RUN position.
Windshield Wiper/Washer Control
WINDSHIELD WIPER OPERATION
Rotate the end of the multifunction lever to the
first detent, past the intermittent settings for
low-speed wiper operation, or to the second
detent past the intermittent settings for
high-speed wiper operation.
Windshield Wiper Operation
Intermittent Wipers
Rotate the end of the multifunction lever to the
first detent position, and then turn the end of
the lever to select the desired delay interval.
There are four delay settings, which allow you to
regulate the wipe interval from a minimum of
one cycle every second to a maximum of
approximately 36 seconds between cycles. The
delay intervals will double in duration when the
vehicle speed is 10 mph (16 km/h) or less.
Windshield Washers
To use the washer, push the multifunction lever
inward (toward the steering wheel) and hold. If
the lever is pushed while in the intermittent
setting, the wipers will turn on and operate for
two cycles after the end of the lever is released,
and then resume the intermittent interval
previously selected.
If the end of the lever is pushed while the wipers
are in the off position, the wipers will operate for
three wipe cycles and then turn off.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the
windshield 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 windshield with
the defroster before and during windshield
washer use.
