3-7

x(Delay Adjustment):Use this band to set the
length of the delay between wipes when using the delay
feature. The closer the band is moved toward mist,
the longer the delay. The windshield wiper lever must
be in delay for this feature to work.
6(Low Speed):For slow, steady wiping cycles.
1(High Speed):For rapid wiping cycles.
If the windshield wipers are in use for about six seconds
while you are driving, the exterior lamps will come on
automatically if the exterior lamp control is in AUTO.
SeeWiper Activated Headlamps on page 3-36for
more information.
Clear snow and ice from the wiper blades before using
them. If the blades are frozen to the windshield, loosen or
thaw them. If they become damaged, install new blades.
For more information, seeWindshield Wiper Blade
Replacement on page 5-52.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper motor.
A circuit breaker will stop the motor until it cools down.
For STS-V, the vehicle is equipped with a feature
that disables the wiper system when the hood is open
and the vehicle is stopped. Opening the hood will
automatically park the wipers if they are not parked.
Rainsense™ II Wipers
For vehicles with 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 a delay
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 occurs each
time the wiper stalk is turned to a higher sensitivity level
to indicate that the sensitivity level has been increased.

;(Parking Lamps):Turns on the parking lamps
together with the following:
Sidemarker Lamps
Taillamps
License Plate Lamps
Instrument Panel Lights
5(Headlamps):Turns on the headlamps, together
with the previously listed lamps and lights.
IntelliBeam™ Intelligent High-Beam
Headlamp Control System
For vehicles with IntelliBeam, read this entire section
before using this feature.
IntelliBeam is an enhancement to the vehicle’s
headlamp system. It uses a light sensor located on
the back of the rearview mirror to turn the high-beam
headlamps on and off depending on approaching traffic.
The IntelliBeam system turns the high-beam headlamps
on when it is dark enough, there is no other traffic
present, and the IntelliBeam system is enabled.
Turning On and Enabling IntelliBeam
AUTO3(IntelliBeam On/Off):Press and release
the IntelliBeam button on the inside rear view mirror.
The indicator on the mirror turns on. Once the system
has been turned on, it remains on each time the vehicle
is started. Additionally, the IntelliBeam system must be
enabled.
To enable the System, turn the exterior lamp control
to AUTO, with the turn signal/multifunction lever in its
starting position. The High-Beam On Light appears on
the instrument panel cluster when the high-beams are on.
SeeHighbeam On Light on page 3-70. The vehicle has
variable intensity high-beams. The high-beam indicator
on the instrument panel cluster comes on as soon as the
high-beams start to come on, and remains on until the
high-beams have completely turned off. Vehicles with
IntelliBeam quickly turn off the high-beams if the system
detects the sudden presence of vehicle lights ahead.
