Front Wipers
Move the wiper lever up or down to the desired
position.

they automatically turn on when the front
wipers operate several times within a certain
interval. The headlights turn off shortly after
the wipers are turned off, or if there is enough
ambient light.

When you move the lever to the INT position, 
the wipers operate based on the wiper delay.

In cold weather, the blades may freeze to the windshield, becoming stuck. 
Operating the wipers in this condition may damage the wipers. Use the de\
froster
to warm the windshield, or manually clear the windshield of ice and snow
before turning on the wipers.
NOTICE
Adjusting the Seats
Make seat adjustments before driving to ensure the best comfort and safety.
Adjusting the Front Seats
Adjust the driver’s seat as far back as possible while 
allowing you to maintain full control of the vehicle.
You should be able to sit upright and well back in the 
seat, adequately press the pedals without leaning 
forward, and grip the steering wheel comfortably. 
The passenger’s seat should be adjusted so that it 
is as far back from the front airbag in the dashboard 
as possible.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Transport Canada
recommend that drivers allow at least 10 inches (25 cm) between the center of the 
steering wheel and the chest.
Reclining the seat-back too far can result in serious injury or death in a crash.
Adjust the seat-back to an upright position, and sit well back in the seat.
