Windshield Wipers x (Delay): While the lever is in the intermittent position, turn the intermittent adjust band with this symbol on it up or down to select a shorter or longer delay between wiping cycles. To the left of the adjust band are bars, increasing in size from bottom to top, that indicate the frequency of the wipes. Smaller bars mean the wipers movement is less frequent. Larger bars mean the movement is more frequent. 6 (Low Speed): Move the lever up to the first setting past intermittent, for steady wiping at low speed. Use this lever, located on the right side of the steering wheel, to operate the windshield wipers. 1 (High Speed): Move the lever up to the second setting past intermittent, for wiping at a high speed. 8 (Mist): Move the lever all the way down to this position for a single wiping cycle. Hold it there until the windshield wipers start; then let go. The windshield wipers stop after one wiping cycle. If additional wiping cycles are needed, hold the lever down longer. Damaged wiper blades can prevent you from seeing well enough to drive safely. Clear ice and snow from the wiper blades before using them to prevent damage. If the wiper blades are frozen to the windshield, carefully loosen or thaw them. If your blades do become damaged, get new blades. 9 (Off): Move the lever to this position to turn off the windshield wipers. & (Intermittent; Speed Sensitive Wipers): Move the lever to this position for intermittent or speed sensitive operation. The amount of delay time varies between wiping cycles due to the delay setting selected or the speed of the vehicle. As vehicle speed is increased or decreased, the wiper interval will also increase or decrease. 3-9
