Intermittent Wiper System - Chrysler 2009 PT Cruiser Owner's Manual

Intermittent Wiper System

The intermittent feature of this system was designed for
use when weather conditions make a single wiping cycle,
with a variable pause between cycles, desirable. For
maximum delay between cycles, rotate the control knob
into the upper end of the delay range.
The delay interval decreases as you rotate the knob until
it enters the low continual speed position.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the windshield
could lead to an accident. You might not see other
vehicles or other obstacles. To avoid sudden icing of
the windshield during freezing weather, warm the
windshield with defroster before and during wind-
shield washer use.
UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 131
NOTE: If the front wiper is operating when the ignition
is turned to LOCK, the wiper will automatically return to
the "Park" position. When the vehicle is restarted, the
wipers will resume operation.
CAUTION!
In cold weather, always turn off the wiper switch and
allow the wipers to return to the park position before
turning off the engine. If the wiper switch is left on
and the wipers freeze to the windshield, damage to
the wiper motor may occur when the vehicle is
restarted.
