You can set the wiper speed for a long delay or short
delay between wipes. This can be very useful in light
rain or snow. Push the lever up one click to INT
(intermittent), then turn the band, located on the lever, to
adjust the delay time. Turn the band down for a longer
delay, up for a shorter delay. The wiper speed can only
be adjusted when the lever is in the INT position, not in
HI or LO.

Be sure to clear the 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.

Windshield Washer

At the end of the right

-

hand lever on the steering wheel,

there is a wiper symbol. To spray washer fluid on the
windshield, push the button on the end of the lever. The
wipers will run for several sweeps and then either stop
or return to your preset speed.

CAUTION:

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.

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 about
25 mph (40 km/h).

When you apply your brakes, the cruise control
shuts off.
