The windshield wipers and washers can be used when the vehicle is on.
Front Wipers
Move the wiper lever up or down to the desired
position.
Headlight-Wiper Integration*When the headlights are in the AUTO position,
they automatically turn on when the front
wipers operate several times within a certain
interval. The headlights turn off shortly after
the wipers are turned off, or if there is enough
ambient light.

Operating the wipers in this condition may damage the wipers. Use the de\
froster

turning on the wipers.
