Intermittent Wiper System - Jeep Liberty 2008 Owner's Manual

CAUTION!
• Turn the windshield wipers off when driving
through an automatic car wash. Damage to the
windshield wipers may result if the wiper control
is left in any position other than OFF.
• 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.
• Always remove any buildup of snow that prevents
the windshield wiper blades from returning to the
OFF position. If the windshield wiper control is
turned OFF and the blades cannot return to the
OFF position, damage to the wiper motor may
occur.

Intermittent Wiper System

Use the intermittent wiper system when weather condi-
tions make a single wiping cycle with a variable pause
between cycles desirable. Rotate the end of the Wind-
shield Wiper/Washer Control Lever to the first detent,
and then turn the end of the lever to select the desired
delay interval. There are five delay settings, which allow
you to regulate the wipe interval from a minimum of two
cycles every second to a maximum of approximately 36
seconds between cycles or from a minimum of one cycle
every second to a maximum of approximately 18 seconds
between cycles at vehicle speeds greater than 10 mph (16
km/h).
