2-3. Operating the lights and windshield wipers

When driving
■The windshield wipers and wa sher can be operated when
The ignition switch is in the “ON” position.
■Effects of vehicle speed on wiper operation
The time until the drip prevention wiper sweep occurs is changed depending on
vehicle speed.
When low speed wiper operation is selected , wiper operation will be switched from
low speed to intermittent wiper operatio n only when the vehicle is stationary.
(However, when the intermittent wiper interv al adjuster is adjusted to the highest
level, the mode will not switch.)
■Wiper reverse motion
If snow or similar substances build up around the windshield and prevent the wiper
from moving smoothly, the wiper may reverse direction before the end of its stroke
in order to secure driver vi sibility and to protect the system. This is normal and does
not indicate a malfunction.
■If no windshield washer fluid sprays
Check that the washer nozzles are not blocked if there is washer fluid in the wind-
shield washer fluid reservoir.
■Lifting the wiper
Activate the wiper and turn the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” position when the
wiper approaches the upper reverse position.
The wiper will stop moving.
Lift and hold the main and sub blades. The blades will not remain in the up posi-
tion if released.STEP1
