the amount of rainfall and controls the
wiping cycle for the proper interval.
The more it rains, the faster the wiper
operates. When the rain stops, the
wiper stops. To vary the speed set-
ting, turn the speed control knob (B).
If the wiper switch is set in AUTO
mode when Engine Start/Stop button
is in the ON position, the wiper will
operate once to perform a self-check
of the system. Set the wiper to OFF
position when the wiper is not in use.To avoid personal injury from
the windshield wipers, when the
engine is running and the wind-
shield wiper switch is placed in
the AUTO mode:
Do not touch the upper end of
the windshield glass facing
the rain sensor.

the windshield glass with a
damp or wet cloth.
Do not put pressure on the
windshield glass.

which could result in an acci-
dent and serious injury or death.

operate the washer when the
fluid reservoir is empty.

to the wipers or windshield,
do not operate the wipers
