2 Answers
The lever on the right side of the steering wheel is the switch for the windshield wipers. Here is how to use the wipers: 1. Use the 1st gear for light rain; 2. Use the 2nd gear for moderate rain; 3. Use the 3rd gear for heavy rain. Below are the maintenance methods for windshield wipers: 1. After washing the car, promptly clean the water on the wiper blades and glass; 2. Regularly check the wiper blades for cracks or damage; 3. When parking outdoors for an extended period, stand the wipers upright. Additional information: Windshield wipers are blade structures installed in front of the windshield, consisting of a motor, reducer, four-bar linkage, wiper arm spindle, and wiper blade assembly. Their function is to clear rain, snow, and dust from the windshield that obstructs the view.
Operating the windshield wipers is actually quite simple. The lever on the right side of the steering wheel controls them. Push it up once for a single wipe, pull it down one notch for slow continuous wiping, further down for medium speed, and all the way down for fast speed. If the windshield is dirty and you want to spray washer fluid, just pull the entire lever toward you. You'll hear the spray sound, and after two or three seconds, the wipers will automatically wipe a few times. The most commonly used setting in rainy weather is the intermittent mode, which can be adjusted with a small knob on the car to change the interval between wipes. Remember not to let the wipers run dry in summer, as this can easily damage the rubber blades. In winter, when there's ice, make sure to remove the ice first before using them, otherwise the motor can easily burn out.
