RAIN SENSOR

4. FUNCTIONS OF RAIN SENSOR
1) Windshield Glass and Coupler Attachment
Check the outer windshield surface of sensing area for wear, damage and scratch. The sensor
is able to compensate the wear up to a specific level. Check the coupler attached surface of
windshield for porosity. If the porosity exists, the sensor cannot function properly.
2) Recognition of AUTO Mode
3) Instant Wipe Function
When the variable resistance knob on the multifunction wiper switch is turned by each 1 stage
from low sensitivity (Smark) to high sensitivity (F mark), the wiper operates one cycle.
And, the wiper also operates during raining up to 5 minutes after rain stops.When the engine is started with the wiper switch “AUTO” position, the wiper operates
one cycle to remind a driver that the wiper switch is in “AUTO” position.
When the wiper switch is turned to “AUTO” from OFF, the wiper operates one cycle. It
always operates one cycle for the initial operation, however, the wiper does not operate
afterwards to prevent the wiper blade wear if not raining when turning the wiper switch to
“AUTO” from “OFF”. However, the wiper operates up to 5 minutes after rain stops.
If this function does not occur, check No. 2 terminal on the rain sensor. If any defective
cannot be found, check the wiper relay (LOW) for defective. 1)

3)If the installed wiper brushes are out of specification (size and length), the rain sensing
area cannot be fully wiped. In this case, the rain sensor’s sensitivity could be
decreased and the wipers are not properly operated -
As described, the STICS recognizes the wiper switch “AUTO” position. If there are not
any problem, go to diagnosis mode in STICS and check the terminal that receives signal
from wiper and communication lines between rain sensor unit and STICS. -

3) Cautions on parking aid system
Note that the display does not show everything in the rear area.
Always check nobody, especially animals and children, is behind the vehicle.
Normal precautions when reversing should be maintained. *
*
The parking aid system is just a supplemental device to help your parking operation.
Always keep the safety precautions.
Do not press or shock the sensors by hitting or high-pressure water gun while washing, o
r
the sensors will be damaged.
If the system is in normal operating conditions, a short beep sounds when the gear selecto
r
lever is moved into “R” position with the ignition key “ON”.
If the system is in abnormal operating conditions, a beep sounds for 3 seconds when the
gear selector lever is moved into “R” position with the ignition key “ON” or engine
running. However, it is also occurred when the obstacle is within 50 cm from the rea
r
bumper. 1.

(1) The parking aid system will not work or improperly work under
following cases:
▶Certain obstacles that sensors can not detect
- Wires, ropes, chains.
- Cotton, sponge, clothes, snow that absorb ultrasonic waves.
- Obstacles lower than the bumper.
▶Not defective but improperly working
- When the sensing portion is frozen.
- When the sensing portion is covered by rain, water drops, snow or mud.
- When receiving other ultrasonic signals
(metal sound or air braking noises from heavy commercial vehicles).
- When a high-power radio is turned on.
▶Narrowed sensing area
- When the sensing portion is partially covered by snow or mud.

▶Not defective but may occur improper working
- When driving on the rough road, gravel road, hill and grass.
- When the bumper height is changed due to the heavy load.
- When the sensing portion is frozen.
- When the sensing portion is covered by rain, water drops, snow or mud.
- When receiving other ultrasonic signals
(metal sound or air braking noises from heavy commercial vehicles).
- When a high-power radio is turned on.
- When some accessories are attached in detecting ranges
