AUTOWIPERS (IF EQUIPPED)
Note:Fully defrost the windshield before switching on the windshield
wipers.
Note:Make sure the windshield wipers are switched off before entering
a car wash.
Note:Replace the wiper blades as soon as they begin to leave bands of
water or smears on the windshield.
Note:If autolamps have been switched on in conjunction with
autowipers, low beam headlamps will illuminate automatically when
the rain sensor activates the windshield wipers continuously.
Note:Wet road conditions can cause unexpected wiping or smearing.
To reduce smearing we recommend the following:
•Lower the sensitivity of the autowipers.
•Switch to normal or high speed wipe.
•Switch the autowipers off.
A. Highest sensitivity
B. On
C. Lowest sensitivity
The wipers will function when moisture is detected on the windshield.
The rain sensor will continue to monitor the amount of moisture on the
windshield and adjust the speed of the wipers automatically.
Use the rotary control to adjust the sensitivity of the rain sensor. With
low sensitivity, the wipers will operate when the sensor detects a large
amount of moisture on the windshield. With high sensitivity, the wipers
will operate when the sensor detects a small amount of moisture on the
windshield.
Keep the outside of the windshield clean. Sensor performance will be
affected if the area around the interior mirror is dirty. The rain sensor is
very sensitive and the wipers may operate if dirt, mist or flies hit the
windshield.
