INSTRUMENT PANEL (Delay Adjustment): Move the lever to the delay position to choose a delayed wiping cycle. Turn the intermittent adjust band down for a longer delay or up for a shorter delay. (Off): Move the lever to this position to turn off the windshield wipers. (Mist): Move the lever all the way down to mist and release for a single wiping cycle. The windshield wipers will stop after one wipe and the lever returns to its parked position. If more wipes are needed, hold the lever on mist longer. Rear Window Wiper/Washer The rear wiper and rear wash buttons are located in the switchbank above the shift lever. (Rear Wiper): Press this button to turn the rear wiper on and off. When the button is on, the rear wiper will run continuously at a preset speed. (Wash): Press this button to spray washer fluid on the rear window. The window wiper will also come on. Release the button when enough fluid has been sprayed on the window. The rear wiper will run a few more cycles after it is released. If the rear wiper function was already on, prior to pressing the wash button, it will continue to stay on until you press the wiper button again. The rear window washer uses the same fluid that is in the windshield washer reservoir. Refer to "Windshield Washer Fluid" in "Checking Things Under the Hood" in the "Service and Appearance Care" section. Cruise Control With cruise control, you can maintain a speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more without keeping your foot on the accelerator. This can really help on long trips. Cruise control does not work at speeds below 25 mph (40 km/h). WARNING Cruise control can be dangerous where you cannot drive safely at a steady speed. So, do not use your cruise control on winding roads or in heavy traffic. Cruise control can be dangerous on slippery roads. On such roads, fast changes in tire traction can cause excessive wheel slip, and you could lose control. Do not use cruise control on slippery roads. Windshield Washer WARNING In freezing weather, do not use your washer until the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the washer fluid can form ice on the windshield, blocking your vision. There is a button marked with the windshield washer symbol at the end of the windshield wiper lever. Press this button to spray washer fluid on the windshield. The wipers will run for a few cycles to clear the window and then either stop or return to your preset speed. For more wash cycles, press and hold the button longer. WARNING If you leave your cruise control on when you are not using cruise, you might hit a button and go into cruise when you do not want to. You could be startled and even lose control. Keep the cruise control switch off until you want to use cruise control. 3-5
