Information
If there is heavy accumulation of snow
or ice on the windshield, defrost the
windshield for about 10 minutes, or
until the snow and/or ice is removed
before using the windshield wipers to
ensure proper operation.
If you do not remove the snow and/or
ice before using the wiper and washer,
it may damage the wiper and washer
system.
AUTO - Automatic Wiper Control
(if equipped)
A rain sensor located near the top of
the windshield detects moisture
accumulation and controls the wiping
cycle automatically. This mode is
designed to operate the wiper at an
appropriate speed depending on the
amount of rainfall. The sensitivity can
be varied by turning the adjustment
control (B) located on the wiper stalk.
If the wiper switch is set in AUTO
mode when the ignition switch is in
the ON position, the wiper will oper-
ate once to perform a self-check of
the system. Set the wiper control to
the OFF position when the wind-
shield wipers are not required.
i
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.
Do not wipe the upper end of
the windshield glass with a
damp or wet cloth.
Do not put pressure on the
windshield glass.
