! Vehicles with a rain sensor: if the
windshield becomes dirty in dry weather
conditions, the windshield wipers may be
activated inadvertently. This could then
damage the windshield wiper blades or
scratch the windshield.

stop the vehicle and open a front door. This
prevents a person from being splashed
inadvertently when getting into or out of the
vehicle.
