Jaguar XJ (X350). Manual — part 1528

The wipers have two speed controls, low and high, and an intermittent wipe mode. The wipers
will park automatically irrespective of their position when the OFF position of the ignition or
control switch is selected.

Within the wiper and washer system the following features can be attained, adjustable interval
intermittent wiping, programmable wash and wipe sequencing, autolamp activation and
moisture sensitive wiping. The system and features are centrally controlled by the front
electronic module (FEM).

The intermittent wiping has seven speed settings, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 seconds and speed
dependant. The driver also has the ability to select these through a switch with seven settings.

The programmed wash and wipe sequence is driver controlled. With a depression of the
wash/wipe switch between 40 milliseconds and 1.2 seconds the wash pump will be activated
for a duration of 1.2 seconds. When the wash/wipe switch is depressed for longer than 1.2
seconds the wash pump will be activated for the duration of switch depression, a 10 second
duration is the maximum available. The wiper system is automatically activated with the
depression of the wash switch.

The moisture sensitive wiping will be initiated when the vehicle is running and not in the
PARK or NEUTRAL gear selection. The wiper switch must be in the AUTO position.
