If the lever is in the 0 position
and
you move it upwards, the wipers
will sweep one stroke at a time for
as long as you hold the lever up.
Single sweep position
Move the lever slightly upward
from the 0 position for one sweep
of the wipers. The lever returns
automatically to 0 when released.

you
can set the wiper interval by twisting
the control ring (1) upward to

to decrease the speed.
Windshield washer/headlight washer (certain models)
When the lever is pulled to wash the windshield, high pressure jets mounted in the bumper will spray the headlights.
CAUTION
• Use ample washer fluid when washing
the windshield to avoid scratching the
glass. The windshield should be thoroughly
wet when the wipers are in operation.
• Before using the wipers, ice and snow
should be removed from the windshield/
rear window. Be sure the wiper
blades are not frozen in place.
• To conserve washer fluid in driving conditions
where the windshield washers are
used frequently, the headlights will only be
washed once for every five times the windshield
is washed within a 10-minute period.
• A short pull on the lever will wash the windshield
only.
• When approximately 1 US quart (1 liter)
remains in the washer fluid reservoir, the
headlights will not be washed when the
lever is pulled to conserve washer fluid for
the windshield.
