Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to
ash to signal a lane change. Hold it there until the
lane change is complete. The lever returns to its
original position when it is released.
Rapid ashing of arrows when signaling for a turn
or lane change may be caused by a burned-out
signal bulb. Other driver’s will not see the signal.
Replace burned-out bulbs to help avoid possible
accidents. Check the fuse and for burned-out bulbs
if the arrow fails to work when signaling a turn.
SeeFuses and Circuit Breakers on page 487for
more information.
Turn Signal On Chime
If the turn signal is left on for about 1 mile (1.6 km),
a warning chime will sound and the TURN
SIGNAL ON message will appear on the Driver
Information Center (DIC) display. See “Turn Signal
On” underDIC Warnings and Messages on
page 264for more information.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
Push forward on the turn signal/multifunction
lever to change the headlamps from low to high
beam. Pull the lever back and then release it
to change from high to low beam.
If you turn the vehicle off with the high beams on,
the next time you start your vehicle the low
beams will be on.
To re-activate high beams, pull lever toward you
and then push it forward again.
This light on the
instrument panel cluster
will be on, indicating
high-beam usage.

Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper motor. A
circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools down.
Clear away snow or ice to prevent an overload.
Your vehicle (STS-V only) is equipped with a
feature that disables the wiper system when the
hood is open and your vehicle is stopped. Opening
the hood will automatically park the wipers if
they are not parked. This prevents the wipers from
interfering with hood operation. Be sure the
hood is not opened when you require the vehicle’s
wipers out of the park position, such as when
changing the wiper blades.
Rainsense™ II Wipers
If your vehicle has this feature, the moisture
sensor is mounted on the interior side of the
windshield behind the rearview mirror. It is used to
automatically operate the wipers by monitoring
the amount of moisture build-up on the windshield.
Wipes occur as needed to clear the windshield
depending on driving conditions and the sensitivity
setting. In light rain or snow, fewer wipes will
occur. In heavy rain or snow, wipes will occur more
frequently. The Rainsense™ wipers operate in adelay mode as well as a continuous low or high
speed as needed. If the system is left on for long
periods of time, occasional wipes may occur
without any moisture on the windshield. This is
normal and indicates that the Rainsense™ system
is activated.
To activate the Rainsense™ system, turn the
wiper band to delay mode and select one of the
four sensitivity levels indicated on the wiper stalk.
The position closest to off is the lowest sensitivity
setting, level one. This allows more rain or snow to
collect on the windshield between wipes. Turning
the wiper band away from you to higher sensitivity
levels increases the sensitivity of the system and
frequency of wipes. The highest sensitivity setting,
level four, is closest to low. A single wipe will occur
each time you turn the wiper stalk to a higher
sensitivity level to indicate that the sensitivity level
has been increased.
Notice:Going through an automatic car wash
with the wipers on can damage them. Turn
the wipers off when going through an
automatic car wash.
