What is the function of the wiper INT mode?

The "INT" on the wiper control lever stands for intermittent automatic operation, which means the wipers will swipe approximately every three seconds. Below is relevant information about wipers: 1. "INT" is actually an abbreviation of "interim," meaning intermittent. For wipers, it indicates intermittent operation, swiping every few seconds, and this interval can be adjusted. 2. On the wiper control lever, there are white gradient grids that decrease in size from top to bottom, with an arrow below "INT." Rotating the dotted circle around "INT" will point the arrow to different white blocks, where the interval time increases from top to bottom. 3. Regarding the usage of wipers, if the windshield is dirty in dry weather, you can first spray windshield washer fluid and then use the wipers to clean it. During heavy rain, the wiper's swing range will be relatively large.

I remember when I first started driving, on rainy days, the low-speed wiper setting was too aggressive, distracting and uncomfortable. Later, I discovered the INT (intermittent) setting, which allows the wipers to move every few seconds—perfect for light rain or fog. Using the knob on the control lever, I adjusted it to wipe every 8 seconds during light drizzle, effectively clearing the windshield without excessive movement. This not only extends wiper lifespan but also keeps the windshield clear. On highways, this setting avoids visual distractions, letting me focus better on the road for smoother driving. The INT mode isn’t just practical—it saves power and reduces maintenance costs. Now, I use it for every light rain, finding it smarter than traditional modes, adapting to varying rain intensity and improving the driving experience.

The INT mode, or intermittent wiper mode, allows the wipers to operate at intervals rather than continuously. I frequently use this function when driving in the rain, as it is particularly suitable for light precipitation such as drizzle or damp weather. By adjusting the knob, I can set the interval time from 2 to 15 seconds, precisely matching the wiper action to current needs. Benefits include reduced wiper wear, avoiding dry wiping that damages rubber; energy savings, protecting the vehicle's battery system; and enhanced comfort with no noise interference. For safety, the INT mode ensures the windshield remains clear of water buildup while maintaining visibility, making driving more stable. This offers greater flexibility than fixed-speed settings, showcasing the intelligence of modern automotive design.

The INT mode is primarily used in light rain conditions, allowing the wipers to operate intermittently to maintain a clear view for safe driving. When driving on the highway in rainy weather, I immediately switch to this mode because overly frequent wiper movements in light rain can actually obstruct visibility. After setting the INT mode, the wipers activate every few seconds, clearing raindrops without distracting the driver. Adjusting the timing with the knob can handle foggy conditions or drizzle, keeping the windshield at an optimal moisture level. From a safety perspective, the INT mode helps me focus on driving with reduced accident risks, especially enhancing visual clarity at night.
