RAIN-SENSING AUTO WIPER
SYSTEM (if so equipped)
The rain-sensing auto wiper system can
automatically turn on the wipers and ad-
just the wiper speed depending on the
rainfall by using the rain sensor located on
the upper part of the windshield.
To set the rain-sensing auto wiper system,
push the lever down to the AUTO position
1. The wiper will sweep once while the
ignition switch is in the ON position.
The rain sensor sensitivity level can be ad-
justed by turning the knob toward the front
2(High) or toward the rear3(Low). – High — High sensitive operation
– Low — Low sensitive operation
To turn the rain-sensing auto wiper system
off, push up the lever to the OFF position, or
pull down the lever to the LO or HI position.
For additional information on disabling the
rain-sensing feature, refer to “Vehicle infor-
mation display” in this section.
CAUTION
∙ Do not touch the rain sensor and
around it when the wiper switch is in
the AUTO position and the ignition
switch is in the ON position. The wip-
ers may operate unexpectedly and
cause an injury or may damage a
wiper.
∙ The rain-sensing auto wipers are in- tended for use during rain. If the
switch is lef t in the AUTO position, the
wipers may operate unexpectedly
when dirt, fingerprints, oil film or in-
sects are stuck on or around the sen-
sor. The wipers may also operate
when exhaust gas or moisture affect
the rain sensor. ∙ When the windshield glass is coated
with water repellent, the speed of the
rain-sensing auto wipers may be
higher even though the amount of the
rainfall is small.
∙ Be sure to turn off the rain-sensing auto wiper system when you use a car
wash.
∙ The rain-sensing auto wipers may not operate if rain does not hit the rain
sensor even if it is raining.
∙ Using Genuine NISSAN wiper blades is recommended for proper operation
of the rain-sensing auto wiper sys-
tem. For additional information, refer
to “Windshield wiper blades” in the
“Do-it-yourself ” section of this
manual.
