Windshield Wipers For steady wiping at low speed, move the stalk up to (1). For high-speed wiping, move the stalk up further to (2).To stop the wiper, move the stalk to OFF. If your vehicle is equipped with variable delay, you can set the wiper speed for a long or short interval between wipes. This can be very useful. Move the stalk to DELAY, then rotate the inner band and choose the delay you want. Rotate the inner band up for shorter intervals between wiper cycles. Rotate the band down for a longer interval between wiper cycles. If your vehicle is equipped with fixed delay, you can use this function by moving the stalk to DELAY. Remember that damaged wiper blades may prevent you from seeing well enough to drive safely. To avoid damage, be sure to clear ice and snow from the wiper blades before using them. If they're frozen to the windshield, carefully loosen or thaw them. If your blades do become damaged, get new blades or blade inserts. Heavy snow or ice can overload your wipers. A circuit breaker will stop them until the motor cools. Clear away snow or ice to prevent an overload. You control the windshield wipers by moving the stalk with the windshield wiper symbol on it upor down. For a single wiper cycle, push the stalk down to MIST, then release it. The wipers will stop after one cycle. For more cycles, hold the wiper stalk down longer.
