RAIN-SENSING AUTO WIPER SYSTEM
(if so equipped)
The rain-sensing auto wiper system can auto-
matically turn on the wipers and adjust the
wiper speed depending on the rainfall and the
vehicle speed by using the rain sensor located
on the upper part of the windshield.
To set the rain-sensing auto wiper system, push
the lever down to the AUTO position
1. The
wiper will sweep once while the ignition switch
is in the ON position. The rain sensor sensitivity level can be adjusted
by turning the knob toward the front
2(High)
or toward the rear
3(Low).
● High — High sensitive operation
● Low — Low sensitive operation
To turn the rain-sensing auto wiper system off,
push up the lever to the OFF position, or pull
down the lever to the LO or HI position.
CAUTION
Do not touch the rain sensor and around it when
the wiper switch is in the INT position and the
ignition switch is in the ON position. The wipers
may operate unexpectedly and cause to an in-
jury or a wiper damage.
● The rain-sensing auto wipers are intended for
use during rain. If the switch is left in the INT
position, the wipers may operate unexpect-
edly when dirt, fingerprints, oil film or insects
are stuck on or around the sensor. The wipers
may also operate when exhaust gas or mois-
ture affect the rain sensor.
● The rain-sensing auto wipers may not oper-
ate if rain does not hit the rain sensor even if
it is raining. To defog/defrost the rear window glass and
outside mirrors, start the engine and push the
switch
1on. The indicator light2will come
on. Push the switch again to turn the defroster
off.
It will automatically turn off in approximately 15
minutes.
CAUTION
When cleaning the inner side of the rear win-
dow, be careful not to scratch or damage the
rear window defroster.

OFF position
When the switch is in the OFF position3, the
lights will not illuminate, regardless of the
condition.
CAUTION
Do not use for extended periods of time with
the engine stopped. This could result in a dis-
charged battery.
The light on the vanity mirror will turn on when
the cover on the vanity mirror is opened.
When the cover is closed, the light will turn off.
The lights will also turn off after 15 minutes when
the lights remain illuminated to prevent the bat-
tery from becoming discharged. The light illuminates when the trunk lid is
opened. When the trunk lid is closed, the light
will turn off.
The light will also turn off after 15 minutes when
the light remains illuminated after the ignition
switch has been pushed to the OFF or LOCK po-
sition to prevent the battery from becoming dis-
charged.

rearview mirror operate normally. The indicator
light will turn off. Push the “I” switch

SAL TRANSCEIVER” in the “2. Instruments and
controls” section.
OUTSIDE MIRRORS
WARNING

HEADLIGHTS
Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of the
exterior lights in the rain or in a car wash. A
temperature difference between the inside and
the outside of the lens causes the fog. This is
not a malfunction. If large drops of water collect
inside the lens, contact an INFINITI retailer.
Replacing
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE
When xenon headlights are on, they produce a
high voltage. To prevent an electric shock,
never attempt to modify or disassemble. Al-
ways have your xenon headlights replaced at
an INFINITI retailer. For additional information,
see “HEADLIGHT AND TURN SIGNAL SWITCH” in
the “2. Instruments and controls” section.
Use the same number and wattage shown in the
following chart as originally installed.
If replacement is required, see an INFINITI re-
tailer.
