4-3. Operating the lights and wipers
Driving
4 Temporary operation
When “AUTO” is selected, the wipers  
will operate automatically when the 
sensor detects falling rain. The system 
automatically adjusts wiper timing in 
accordance with rain volume and vehi-
cle speed.
When “AUTO” is selected, the sen- 
sor sensitivity can be adjusted as  
follows by turning the switch ring. 
5 Increases the rain-sensing wind- 
shield wiper sensitivity 
6 Decreases the rain-sensing  
windshield wiper sensitivity 
7  Washer/wiper dual oper- 
ation
Pulling the lever operates the wipers  
and washer. 
Wipers will automatically operate a cou- 
ple of times after the washer squirts.
■The windshield wiper and washer  can be operated when 
The engine switch is in ON.
■Effects of vehicle speed on wiper  operation 
Vehicle speed affects the Intermittent  
wiper interval.
■Raindrop sensor
●The raindrop sensor judges the 
amount of raindrops. An optical sensor is adopted. It may not operate properly when sunlight  
from the rising or setting of the sun  intermittently strikes the windshield, or if bugs etc. are present on the wind- 
shield.
●If the wiper is turned to AUTO mode 
while the engine switch is in ON, the  wipers will operate once to show that AUTO mode is activated.
●If the temperature of the raindrop sen-sor is 85°C (185°F) or higher, or -15°C  
(5°F) or lower, automatic operation  may not occur. In this case, operate  
the wipers in any mode other than  AUTO mode.
■If no windshield washer fluid sprays 
Check that the washer nozzles are not  blocked if there is washer fluid in the windshield washer fluid reservoir.

4-3. Operating the lights and wipers
WARNING
■Caution regarding the use of  windshield wipers in AUTO mode 
The windshield wipers may operate  unexpectedly if the sensor is touched or the windshield is subject to vibra- 
tion in AUTO mode. Take care that  your fingers or anything else do not become caught in the windshield wip- 
ers.
■Caution regarding the use of 
washer fluid 
When it is cold, do not use the washer  fluid until the windshield becomes  
warm. The fluid may freeze on the  windshield and cause low visibility. This may lead to an accident, result- 
ing in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■When there is no washer fluid 
spray from the nozzle 
Damage to the washer fluid pump  may be caused if the lever is pulled  
toward you and held continually.
■When a nozzle becomes blocked 
In this case, contact any authorized  Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized  
repairer, or any reliable repairer. Do not try to clear it with a pin or other object. The nozzle will be damaged.
