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.

closing the windows to avoid personal injury.
Proceed as follows to override this protection function when there is a
resistance, for example in the winter:
1. Close the window twice until it reaches the resistance and let it
reverse.
2. Close the window a third time to the resistance. The bounce-back
function is disabled and you can close the window manually. The window
will override the resistance and you can close it fully.

Integrated Blind Spot Mirrors
WARNING:Objects in the blind spot mirror are closer than they
appear.
Blind spot mirrors have an integrated convex mirror built into the upper
outboard corner of the exterior mirrors. They are designed to assist you
by increasing visibility along the side of your vehicle.
Check the main mirror first before a lane change, then check the blind
spot mirror. If no vehicles are present in the blind spot mirror and the
traffic in the adjacent lane is at a safe distance, signal that you are going
to change lanes. Glance over your shoulder to verify traffic is clear, and
carefully change lanes.
The image of the approaching
vehicle is small and near the inboard
edge of the main mirror when it is
at a distance. The image becomes
larger and begins to move outboard
across the main mirror as the vehicle
approaches (A). The image will
transition from the main mirror and
begin to appear in the blind spot
mirror as the vehicle approaches
(B). The vehicle will transition to
your peripheral field of view as it
leaves the blind spot mirror (C).
