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.

make a single wiping cycle with a variable pause be-
tween cycles desirable. Rotate the end of the wiper 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.

the intermittent settings for low-speed wiper operation.
Rotate the end of the lever upward to the second detent
past the intermittent settings for high-speed wiper opera-
tion.

To use the Washer, pull the lever rearward toward you
and hold while spray is desired. If the lever is pulled
while on the intermittent setting, the wipers will turn on
and operate for several wipe cycles after the lever is

are in the off position, the wipers will operate several
wipe cycles, then turn off.
