For
steady
wiping
at
low
speed,
turn
the
band
away
from
you
to
the
LO
position. For high-speed
wiping
turn
the
band
further,
to
HI.
To
stop the
wipers,
move
the
band
to
OW.
The
wiper
speed
may
be
set
for a
long
or
short
delay
between
wipes.
This
can
be
very
useful
in
light
rain
or
snow.
Turn
the
band
to
choose
the
delay
time.
The
closer
to
LO,
the
shorter
the
delay.
Heavy
snow
or
ice can
overload
your
wiper
motor.
A
circuit
breaker
will
stop
the
motor
until
it cools.
Clear
away
snow
or
ice
to prevent
an
overload.
Keep in mind
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
your
blades do become
damaged,
get
new
blades
or
blade
inserts.
Windshield
Washer
At the top
of
the
turn
signaVmultifunction
lever,
there’s
a
paddle
with
the
word
PUSH
on
it.
To
spray
washer
fluid
on
the
windshield,
push
the
paddle
for less
than
a
second.
The
wipers
will
clear
the
window
and
either
stop or return
to
your
preset
speed.
For
more
washer
cycles,
push
and
hold
the
paddle.
In
freezing
weather,
don’t
use
your
washer
until
the
windshield
is
warmed.
Otherwise
the
washer
fluid
can
form
ice
on
the
windshield,
blocking
your
vision.
Some
models
have
a
WASHER
FLUID
warning
that
indicates if the
fluid
level
in
the windshield
washer
reservoir
is
low. See “Low
Washer
Fluid
Warning
Light”
in
the
Index.
