ate the wipers when needed, depending

setting. If the system is left on for long
periods, an occasional wipe may occur
without any moisture on the windshield
to indicate the system is activated.
The headlamps also will be turned on
automatically when the Rainsense
wipers are active if the exterior lamp
control knob is in the AUTO position.

on for one wipe.
