Figure 5. Windscreen wiper/washer switch
Windshield wiper Caution. Do not turn on the windshield wipers if the glass is dry. In severe frost or very hot weather, before turning on the windshield wipers, make sure that they are not frozen or stuck to the glass. Before turning on the wipers in winter, first clear the glass of any accumulated snow and ice.
The windshield wipers are controlled by changing the position of the lever directly. The windshield wiper switch has the following positions:
- O — Initial position of the lever. The windshield wipers are off.
- I — Transfer to the first fixed position upwards. Intermittent cleaning mode.
- 1 - Move to the second fixed position up. Normal operating mode.
- 2 - Move to the third fixed position up. High speed cleaning mode.
- 3 - Move to the first fixed position down. One-time cleaning mode (one cleaning cycle).

To turn on the windshield washer, pull the lever towards you (to the steering wheel). The windshield wipers will perform three cleaning cycles in intermittent mode.
Rear window wiper
The rear window wiper is controlled by a rotary switch, which is shaped like a cap and is located at the end of the lever. The rear window wiper switch has three positions:
- Initial position of the lever. The rear window wiper is off.
- Transfer to the first fixed position by turning the switch. Intermittent cleaning mode.
- Transfer to the second fixed position by turning the switch. Operation of the rear window wiper and washer in time-delay mode (three cleaning cycles).
