For 1990-2009 cars

The lever on the right side of the steering column operates the windshield wipers.

: Pull the lever down and release it for a single wiping cycle. The lever will return to its original position. For more cycles, hold the lever down before releasing it.
: Put the lever in this position to turn off the wipers.
: Put the lever in this position to set a delay between wipes. Turn the band on the lever to set the length of the delay (1, 2, or 3).
: Put the lever in this position for slow, steady wiping cycles.
: Put the lever in this position for rapid wiping cycles.

Be sure to clear ice and snow from the wiper blades before using them. If they're frozen to the windshield, gently loosen or thaw them. If the blades do become damaged, install new blades or blade inserts.

Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper motor. A circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools down. Clear away snow or ice to prevent an overload.

### Windshield Washer

Caution: In freezing weather, do not use your washer until the windshield is warmed. Otherwise the washer fluid can form ice on the windshield, blocking your vision.

Pull the windshield wiper lever toward you to operate the windshield wipers. Washer fluid will squirt onto the windshield and the wipers will run for a few cycles to clear the windshield. For more wash cycles, pull the lever toward you and hold it there.

### Rear Window Wiper/Washer (Wagon)

There is a band on the wiper lever to operate the rear wiper/washer.

: Put the band in this position to turn off the rear wiper.
: Put the band in this position to turn on the rear wiper. This position will be slow, steady wiping cycles.
(Wash): Hold the band in this position to spray washer fluid on the rear window. The rear wiper will also come on. Release the band when enough fluid has been sprayed on the window. The rear wiper will stay on until you turn the band to OFF.
