The windshield wipers are controlled by the lever located on the right side of the steering column.

The windshield wipers have these positions:

OFF: Turn the knob at the end of the windshield wiper lever to turn off the wipers.

INT (Intermittent): Turn the knob to the intermittent setting to delay the wiper speed. This can be very useful in light rain or snow. When you turn the knob to this setting, you can also set the wiper speed. See the following text for more information.

INT (Intermittent) TIME: Turn this band on the windshield wiper lever to set the delay time between wipes. The closer the band is turned to F (fast), the shorter the delay will be. The closer the band is turned to S (slow), the longer the delay will be.

LO (Low): Turn the knob to this setting to operate the windshield wipers at a low speed.

HI (High): Turn the knob to this setting to operate the windshield wipers at a high speed.

Be sure to clear ice and snow from the wiper blades before using them. If they are frozen to the windshield, carefully loosen or thaw them. If your blades do become worn or damaged, get new blades or blade inserts. For more information, see Windshield Wiper Blade Replacement .

Heavy snow or ice can overload your wipers. The windshield wiper motor is protected from overload by a circuit breaker and a fuse. If the motor overheats due to heavy snow or ice, the wiper will stop until the motor cools. Although the circuit is protected from electrical overload, overload due to heavy snow or ice may cause wiper linkage damage. Always clear ice and heavy snow from the windshield before using your windshield wipers.
