2. FUNCTIONS
1) Wiper and Washer Fluid Switch Operation
The wiper operates for 1 cycle when pushing
up the lever. The lever will return to the
"OFF" position when released.Front Automatic Wiping Speed

Front Auto Washer Switch (AFW)
When the front wiper switch is off
and this switch is pressed, washer
fluid will be sprayed and the wiper
will automatically operate 4 times.
Then, the fluid will be sprayed again
and the wiper will automatically
operate 3 times.
Wiper and Washer Coupled Operation

2) Fluidic Washer Nozzle
Fluidic Washer Nozzle is applied to the front washer spray system in this vehicle. The inside of nozzle is
designed to utilize the fluidic movement.
This is a shape of the inside of nozzle. It is designed to change the spraying direction continuously
according to the spraying time (fan-shape). The figure below shows the changes of spraying direction
according to the spraying time.
It is designed to be changed spraying direction using the whirlwind and backflow generated in nozzle.Washer fluid inletSpray passage Counter-currentPassageWasher fluid outlet

3) STICS Control Logic Related to Wiper and Washer
Wiper MIST and Front Washer Coupled Wiper ▶
The wiper relay is turned on 0.3 seconds after turning "ON" the washer switch for 0.1 ~ 0.59
seconds with the ignition key "ON", and it is turned off when the parking terminal is turned off. 1.
The wiper relay is turned on at 0.3 seconds after from the time when the washer switch is turned
on for more than 0.6 seconds with the ignition switch "ON". The wiper relay gets on 3 times
immediately after turning off the washer switch. 2.

07-117810-01
When the washer switch is turned on for more than 0.6 seconds during the wiper operation by
INT switch, the operation in step (2) is performed.
When it is turned on for a certain period of time (0.1 to 0.59 seconds), the operation in step (1) is
performed. 3.

AUTO and Sensitivity Control
1. OVERVIEW
The rain sensing wiper unit system doesn't control the wiper directly. The rain sensing unit detects the
amount of rain drops and sends the operating signal to STICS, and STICS drives the wiper directly.
Rain Sensing Unit
(AUTO Light Sensor Integrated Type)
A sensor that emits infrared rays through LED
and then detects the amount of rain drops by
receiving reflected rays against sensing section
(rain sensor mounting section on the windshield)
with photodiode. The auto light sensor is
Integrated into the rain sensor (refer to the below
picture).AUTO: Wiper operates automatically by rain
sensor
FAST SLOW: Auto delay/auto speed
control. A position that can control sensitivity
against rains on the windshield and transmits
wiping demand signal accordingly.

bottom emits the infrared rays and
the lens guides the infrared rays to
target point.

STICS Engine Compartment Fuse Box
STICS ▶
The rain sensing unit detects the amount of rain drops and sends the operating signal to STICS, and
STICS drives the wiper directly. At this moment, STICS determines the wiper operation mode (washer,
MIST, AUTO), then sends the information to the rain sensor.
Auto Light Sensor and Rain Sensor Coupled Control ▶
Rain detected headlamp: If it rains heavy which requires the highest INT speed (almost LOW),
the headlamps are turned on automatically. -
Night detected wiping: When the auto light control turns on the headlamps and the rain sensor
detects the rain, the wiper sensitivity is automatically increased by one level in comparison with
daytime.
(i.e. the AUTO wiper switch is at the 3rd level, but the wiper operates at the 4th level.) -Wiper relay (HI)

1) Power-up Reminder Wiper Function
When turning off and on the auto INT switch, the system drives the wiper motor through LOW
relay regardless of communication with rain sensor. 1.
When turning the INT-AUTO switch from the "OFF" to "ON" position with the ignition switch in
the "ON" mode, the LOW relay operates to drive the wiper motor for 1 cycle, regardless of the
rain sensor communication.
After that, when turning the INT-AUTO switch from the "OFF" to "ON" position, the LOW relay
operates to drive the wiper motor for 1 cycle only if data from the rain sensor indicates rain
drops. 2.
2. FUNCTIONS OF RAIN SENSING WIPER

2) Washer Coupled Wiper in Rain Sensing Mode
The washer coupled wiper is operated when receiving the washer switch input with the ignition
switch "ON" and the auto INT switch "ON" in rain sensing mode. At this moment, the
communication with the rain sensor is overridden. However, a washer input is overridden if there
is an output for continuous operation.
The operation data is sent to the rain sensor even during the washer coupled wiper's operation. 1.
