WINDSHIELD WIPERS
Windshield Wiper Stalk
The windshield wiper stalk is located on
the right side of the steering wheel.
The windshield wipers will only operate
with the ignition cycled to ON.
Caution!
Turn the windshield wipers off when
driving through an automatic car wash.
Damage to the windshield wipers may result
if the wiper control is left in any position
other than off.
In cold weather, always turn off the wiper
switch and allow the wipers to return to the
“Park” position before turning off the
engine. If the wiper switch is left on and the
wipers freeze to the windshield, damage to
the wiper motor may occur when the vehicle
is restarted.
Always remove any buildup of snow that
prevents the windshield wiper blades from
returning to the off position. If the
windshield wiper control is turned off and
the blades cannot return to the off position,
damage to the wiper motor may occur.
Windshield Wiper/Washers
Operation:
The switch on the wiper stalk
can be set to the following positions:
Windshield Wiper Off.
Low Sensitivity Rain Sensing.
High Sensitivity Rain Sensing.
Low Continuous Wiper Speed.
High Continuous Wiper Speed.
Windshield Wiper Operation
Rotating the switch to the
position
activates the first (low) level continuous
speed of the windshield wipers in manual
mode.
Rotating the switch to the
position
activates the second (high) level
continuous speed of the windshield
wipers in manual mode.
Rain Sensors
Rotating the switch to the
position,
activates the first, less sensitive level of
the Rain Sensing function.
Rotating the switch to the
position,
activates the second, more sensitive level
of the Rain Sensing function. Refer to “Rain
Sensor” in this section for more
information on how this system functions.
Windshield Washer Operation
Pull the stalk toward the steering wheel
to operate the windshield washer.
Keep the stalk pulled to activate both the
windshield washer jet and the windshield
wiper with a single movement. The wipers
and washers will continue to operate until
you let go of the stalk.
The windshield wiper stops working three
strokes after the stalk is released,
followed by a final stroke six seconds
later to complete the cycle.
Mist
Use this feature when weather
conditions make occasional usage of the
wipers necessary. Push the stalk upward
to the MIST position and release for a
single wiping cycle. This function is useful
to remove small deposits of dust from
the windshield or morning dew.
Note: This function does not activate the
windshield washer. To spray windshield
washer fluid onto the windshield, the
washing function must be used.
