Windshield wipers and washer  
To squirt washer fluid, pull the lever  
toward you.  
If the windshield wipers are off, they will  
operate a couple of times after the washer  
squirts.  
For instructions on adding washer fluid,  
see “Adding washer fluid” on page 453 in  
Section 73.  
In freezing weather, warm the windshield  
with the defroster before using the washer.  
This will help prevent the washer fluid  
from freezing on your windshield, which  
can block your vision.  
To turn on the windshield wipers, move  
the lever to the desired setting.  
To turn on the back window wiper, twist  
the lever knob upward.  
NOTICE  
The engine switch must be in the “ON”  
position.  
The engine switch must be in the “ON”  
position.  
Do not operate the wipers if the wind-  
shield is dry. It may scratch the  
glass.

To squirt washer fluid on the back window,  
twist the knob upward or downward as far  
as it will go (position 3 or 4). The knob  
automatically returns from these positions  
after you release it. The back window wip-  
er operates while the washer squirts.  
The “INT” band lets you adjust the wiping  
time interval when the wiper lever is in  
the intermittent position (position 1). Twist  
the band upward to increase the time be-  
tween sweeps, and downward to decrease  
it.
