If the wiper lever is in the “OFF” position, the wipers will
automatically make 3 wipes and then a single wipe later to
sweep the windshield completely.* The interval between the
3 wipes and the last wipe will depend on the vehicle speed.
The last sweep does not happen if the vehicle speed exceeds
about 170 km/h (106 mph).
NOTE: *The last single wipe can be deactivated. Ask your
Lexus dealer for details.
The low washer fluid warning light in the instrument cluster
comes on when the fluid level in the tank becomes very low.
For information on adding washer fluid, see “Adding washer
fluid” on page 458.
In cold weather, warm the windshield with the defroster before
using the washer. This will help prevent icing, which could
block your vision.

automatically turns on when you operate the wipers.
NOTICE
Do not operate the wipers if the windshield is dry. It may
scratch the glass.
When waxing your vehicle, make sure the washer nozzles do
