The windshield wiper and washer can be operated when
The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode.
Effects of vehicle speed on wiper operation (vehicles equipped with
rain-sensing windshield wipers)
Vehicle speed affects the wiper operation when the washer is being used
(delay until drip prevention wiper sweep occurs) even when the wipers are
not in “AUTO” mode.
With “ ” selected, wiper operation will be switched from low speed to inter-
mittent wiper operation only when the vehicle is stationary.
(However, when the sensor sensitivity is adjusted to the highest level, the
mode cannot be switched.)
Rain drop sensor (vehicles with rain-sensing windshield wipers)
If the wiper switch is turned to “AUTO” position while the “ENGINE
START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode, the wiper will operate
once to show that “AUTO” mode is activated.
If the temperature of the rain drop sensor is 80C (176F) or higher, or
-10C (14F) or lower, automatic operation may not occur. In this case,
operate the wipers in any mode other than “AUTO”.
If no windshield washer fluid sprays
Check that the washer nozzles are not blocked and if there is washer fluid in
the windshield washer fluid reservoir.
The sensor judges the amount of rain-
drops.

CAUTION
Caution regarding the use of windshield wipers in “AUTO” mode (vehi-
cles with rain-sensing windshield wipers)
The windshield wipers may operate unexpectedly if the sensor is touched or
the windshield is subject to vibration in “AUTO” mode. Take care that your
fingers or anything else do not become caught in the windshield wipers.
Caution regarding the use of washer fluid
When it is cold, do not use the washer fluid until the windshield becomes
warm. The fluid may freeze on the windshield and cause low visibility. This
may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
