Intermittent Wiper System

Use the intermittent wiper when weather conditions make a single wiping cycle, with a variable pause between cycles, desirable. Rotate the end of the lever to the first detent position for one of five intermittent settings.

The delay cycle can be set anywhere between 1 to 18 seconds.

If the vehicle is moving less than 10 mph (16 km/h), delay times will be doubled.
