mode, the wiper will operate once to indicate that the sensor sensitivity is
enhanced.
If the temperature of the raindrop sensor is 90C (194F) or higher, or
-15C (5F) or lower, automatic operation may not occur. In this case,
operate the wiper in any mode other than “AUTO”.

windshield washer fluid reservoir.
CAUTION
Caution regarding the use of windshield wiper in “AUTO” mode (vehi-
cles with rain-sensing windshield wiper)
The windshield wiper may operate unexpectedly if the sensor is touched or
the windshield is subject to vibration in “AUTO” mode. Take care that your
fingers etc. do not become caught in the windshield wiper.
