CAUTION!

Turn the windshield wipers off when driving

through an automatic car wash. Damage to the
windshield wipers may result if the wiper control
is left in any position other than off.

In cold weather, always turn off the wiper switch

and allow the wipers to return to the “Park” posi-
tion before turning off the engine. If the wiper
switch is left on and the wipers freeze to the
windshield, damage to the wiper motor may occur
when the vehicle is restarted.

Always remove any buildup of snow that prevents

the windshield wiper blades from returning to the
off position. If the windshield wiper control is
turned off and the blades cannot return to the off
position, damage to the wiper motor may occur.

Windshield Wiper Operation

Rotate the end of the lever upward to the second detent

past the intermittent settings for low-speed wiper opera-

tion. Rotate the end of the lever upward to the third

detent past the intermittent settings for high-speed wiper

operation.
