Rain Sensing Windshield Wipers(if equipped)
Press the wiper control lever down one
position. When the wiper control lever is in the
“AUTO” position, the wipers operate
automatically when the rain/light sensor on the
windshield glass detects moisture on the
windshield. Rotate the dial to adjust the
sensitivity of the rain/light sensor. All other
functions of the wiper system work the same
as above.
NOTE: Make sure to turn off this function
before entering an automatic car wash.
REAR WINDOW WIPER
Rotate the end of the lever up one position for
intermittent, or two positions for continuous
wipe.
When the lever in is the intermittent position,
the wiper operates at intervals corresponding
with vehicle speed. When you move the select
lever to the “R” position, the wiper will switch
to continuous operation. It will return to
intermittent when you move the select lever
out of “R”.
Rotate the dial up from the continuous wipe position or down from the “OFF” position to
spray washer fluid. The washer will spray until you release the dial, then return to the
previous position and resume operation.
