CAUTION!
²Turn the windshield wipers off when driving
through an automatic car wash. Damage to the
windshield wipers may result if the wiper control

²Always remove any buildup of snow that prevents
the windshield wiper blades from returning to the

turned OFF and the blades cannot return to the
OFF position, damage to the wiper motor may

Intermittent Wiper System

tions make a single wiping cycle with a variable pause
between cycles desirable. Rotate the end of the Wind-

delay interval. There are five delay settings, which allow
you to regulate the wipe interval from a minimum of one
cycle every second to a maximum of approximately 18
seconds between cycles.
For vehicles equipped with the Speed Sensitive Intermit-
tent Wiper System, the wiper delay times depend on
vehicle speed. If the vehicle is moving less than 10 mph
(16 km/h), delay times will double.
