EHICLE CONTROLS
Rear Wiper
Rotate the end of the wiper lever to operate the
rear wiper.
When you change the gear to Reverse (R) and
the front wipers are activated, the rear wiper
activates even if the switch is off.
Automatic Rain-Sensing Wipers*When you move the lever to the AUTO position while driving in rainy weather,
the wipers operate based on the amount of detected rainfall.
Put the lever in the AUTO position only when driving in rainy weather.
Rotate the adustment ring to adjust the rainfall sensor sensitivity.
Return the lever to the OFF position when rain stops.
Do not use the wipers when the windshield is dry. The windshield will get
scratched, or the rubber blades will get damaged.
In cold weather, the blades may freeze to the windshield, becoming stuck.
Operating the wipers in this condition may damage the wipers. Use the defroster
to warm the windshield, or manually clear the windshield of ice and snow before
turning on the wipers.
