Auto washer coupled wiper ▶
When turning ON the auto washer switch with IGN ON and intermittent/automatic wiper switch OFF,
the washer fluid is sprayed onto the windshield glass for 2 seconds and the wipers operate 4 times.
After then, additionally, the washer fluid is sprayed for 1.5 seconds and the wipers operate 3 times
again.
The auto washer switch signal is overridden during speed sensitive intermittent wiper, washer
coupled wiper or auto washer coupled wiper operation.
When turning the wiper switch to AUTO position during the operation of auto washer, the auto
washer stops its operation and the intermittent/automatic wiping mode will be started.
The front and rear washer switch signal are overridden during the operation of auto washer. 1.

Power-up reminder wiper ▶
If the intermittent/automatic wiper switch is in "ON" position, the wiper motor does not operate even
when turning the ignition switch to ON from OFF position.
When turning the intermittent/automatic wiper switch to ON from OFF position with IGN ON, the wipers
operate once at low speed initially regardless of the communication with the rain sensor. After that, the
wipers operate once at low speed only when the rain sensor detects
the side fascia panel. 1.

Washer coupled wiper in rain sensing mode ▶
When the washer switch signal is received during intermittent operation coupled with rain sensor
with IGN ON and intermittent/automatic washer switch operation, the wipers operate in washer
coupled mode regardless of the communication with the rain sensor. However, if the washer switch
signal is received the washer relay is activated and wiper relay remains activated, when the data
coupled with rain sensor indicates continuous wiper operation.
Even though the wiping system is in washer coupled wiper mode, the operating data are sent to rain
sensor. 1.

Sensitivity adjustment (instant wiping) ▶
When the wiping speed control switch is turned to "FAST" with IGN2 ON, intermittent/automatic wiper
switch in "ON" position and wiper motor stop (parking position), the wiper motor operates one cycle at
low speed.
(only when the rain sensor detects raindrops)
If the wiping speed control switch is changed more than 2 stages within 2 seconds, the wiper motor
operates only one cycle. 1.

Speed sensitive intermittent wiper ▶
The BCM without rain sensor operates the wiper as follows:
When turning the ignition switch to ON from OFF position with the intermittent wiper switch in "ON"
position, the wipers do not operate.
When turning the wiper switch to ON from OFF position after turning the ignition switch to ON position,
the wipers operate one cycle.
The wiper's operation cycle depends on the vehicle speed (CAN communication with instrument
cluster) and wiping speed the side fascia panel.

1. WIPER CONTROL
2. CAUTIONS ON RAIN SENSOR
When the wiper switch is in the AUTO position, the wiper will operate for 1 cycle if the initial engine
start is made. This may cause the wiper blades to wear prematurely. Therefore, other than rainy
days, set the switch to the OFF position. Especially during the winter time, check if the wiper blades
are not frozen to the windshield.
Operating the wiper with the blades frozen can damage the wiper motor.
If you operate the wipers when the windshield is dry without spraying washer fluid, the windshield
can be scratched and the wiper blades can wear prematurely. Use the wiper with the washer fluid
when the windshield is dry.
When it does not rain, turn the wiper switch to the OFF position.
Turn the wiper switch to the OFF position before any car wash to avoid unwanted operation of the
wipers. -

Check if the sensor is off the position.
Check if the rain sensor cover is securely installed.
Check if the customer is familiar to how to control the wiper sensitivity.
Check if the wiper sensitivity control is set to the FAST side (step 5).
Check the wiper blade for wear.
If the wiper blade cannot wipe the glass uniformly and clearly, it may cause the rain sensor to
work irregularly. Therefore, in this case, replace the wiper blade with a new one. -

- Irregular operation (abrupt operation) ▶ When cleaning the windshield over the sensor with damp clothes, the wiper may operate suddenly. It
could cause serious injury. Make sure to place the wiper switch to the OFF position and ignition switch
OFF when not in use.

When the washer switch signal is received during intermittent operation coupled with rain sensor
with IGN ON and intermittent/automatic
washer switch operation, the wipers operate in washer coupled mode regardless of the
communication with the rain sensor. However, if the washer switch
signal is received the washer relay is activated and wiper relay remains activated,
when the data coupled with rain sensor indicates continuous wiper operation.
Even though the wiping system is in washer coupled wiper mode, the operating data are sent to

position, the wipers do not operate.
When turning the wiper switch to ON from OFF position after turning the ignition switch to ON position,
the wipers operate one cycle.
The wiper's operation cycle depends on the vehicle speed (CAN communication with instrument
