protected from overload by a circuit breaker and
a fuse. If the motor
overheats due
to heavy snow, etc., the wiper will stop until the motor cools.
Although the circuit is protected from electrical overload, overload due to
heavy snow, etc. may cause wiper linkage damage. Always clear ice and
heavy snow from the windshield before using your windshield wipers.

the brake. This,
of course, shuts off the cruise control. But you don’t need to
reset it. Once you’re going about
25 mph (40 kdh) or more, you can move
the cruise control switch from
ON to R/A (Resume/Accelerate) for about
half
a second.
You’ll go right back up to your chosen speed and stay there.
Remember, if you hold the switch at R/A (Resume/Accelerate) longer than
half a second, the vehicle will keep going faster
until you release the switch
or apply the brake. You could be startled and even lose control.
So unless
you want to
go faster, don’t hold the switch at R/A (Resume/Accelerate).
To lncrease Speed While Using Cruise Control
While your cruise control switch is in the ON position, here are two ways to
go
to a higher speed.
0 Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher speed. Push the button at
the end
of the lever, then release the button and the accelerator pedal.
You’ll now cruise at the higher speed.

installed.
If the new one can be set to the mileage total of the old odometer,
then
it must be. But if it can't, then it's set at zero, and a label must be put
on the driver's door to show the old mileage reading when the new
odometer was installed.

Warning Lights, Gages and Indicators
This part describes the warning lights and gages that may be on your
vehicle. The pictures

Paying attention to your warning lights and gages
could also save you or
others from injury.
Warning lights come on when there may be or
is a problem with one of your
vehicle's functions.
