Locks

Note:If you switch autolamps on in
conjunction with autowipers, your low
beam headlamps will illuminate
automatically when the rain sensor
activates the windshield wipers
continuously.
Note: Wet or winter driving conditions
with ice, snow or salty road mist can
cause inconsistent and unexpected
wiping or smearing.
In these conditions, you can do the
following to help keep your windshield
clear:
• Lower the sensitivity of the autowipers to reduce the amount
of smearing.
• Switch to normal or high-speed wipe.
• Switch the autowipers off.

Lowest sensitivity
C The autowipers feature uses a rain
sensor. You will find it in the area
around the interior mirror. The rain
sensor monitors the amount of
moisture on the windshield and
automatically turns on the wipers. It
will adjust the wiper speed by the
amount of moisture that the sensor
detects on the windshield. You can
turn this feature on and off in the
information display. See General
Information (page 101).
Use the rotary control to adjust the
sensitivity of the rain sensor. Set the
control to low sensitivity, and the
wipers will turn on when the rain
sensor detects a large amount of
moisture on the windshield. Set the
control to high sensitivity, and the
wipers will turn on when the rain
sensor detects a small amount of
moisture on the windshield.
Keep the outside of the windshield
clean. The rain sensor is very sensitive.
If the area around the mirror is dirty,
then the wipers may operate if dirt,
mist or insects hit the windshield.
WINDSHIELD WASHERS
Note:
Do not operate the washers
when the washer reservoir is empty.
This may cause the washer pump to
overheat.
