Windshield Wiper Operation
Rotate the end of the lever upward to the second detent past
the intermittent settings for low-speed wiper operation.

Rotate the end of the lever upward to the third detent
past the intermittent settings for high-speed wiper opera-
tion.

Intermittent Wiper System
Use the intermittent wiper when weather conditions
make a single wiping cycle, with a variable pause be-
tween cycles, desirable. Select the delay interval by
turning the end of the lever. Rotate the end of the lever
upward (clockwise) to decrease the delay time and
downward (counterclockwise) to increase the delay time.
The delay can be regulated from a maximum of approxi-
mately 18 seconds between cycles, to a cycle every
second.

NOTE:

The wiper delay times depend on vehicle speed.

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