When the washer lever is operated, the wipers automatically three passes across the windshield.
The washer continues to operate until the lever is released.

seconds at a time or when the fluid
reservoir is empty.
o In icy or freezing weather, be sure the wiper blades are not frozen to the glass prior to operating the wipers.
o In areas where water freezes in winter, use windshield washer antifreeze.

If a single wipe is desired in mist, push the windshield wiper and washer control lever upwards.
Adjustable Intermittent Wiper Operation
