AUTOWIPERS (If Equipped)
Note: Fully defrost the windshield before you
switch the windshield wipers on.
Note: Make sure you switch the windshield
wipers off before entering a car wash.
Note: If streaks or smears appear on the
windshield, clean the windshield and the
wiper blades.
See Checking the Wiper
Blades (page 324). If that does not resolve
the issue, install new wiper blades. See
Changing the Wiper Blades (page 324).
Autowipers uses a rain sensor located in the
area around the interior mirror. The rain
sensor will continue to monitor the amount
of water on the windshield and automatically
adjust the speed of the wipers. High sensitivity
A
OnB
Low sensitivity
C
Use the rotary control to adjust the sensitivity
of the autowipers. When you select low
sensitivity, the wipers will operate when the
sensor detects a large amount of water on
the windshield. When you select high
sensitivity, the wipers will operate when the
sensor detects a small amount of water on
the windshield. Keep the outside of the windshield clean.
The rain sensor is very sensitive and the
wipers may operate if dirt, mist or insects hit
the windshield.
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:
•
Lower the sensitivity of the autowipers
to reduce the amount of smearing on the
windshield.
• Switch to normal or high-speed wipe.
• Switch autowipers off.
Note: If you switch autolamps and
autowipers on, the headlamps will
automatically turn on when the windshield
wipers continuously operate.
Autowipers Settings
(If Equipped)
Autowipers default to on and remain on until
you switch it off in the information display.
With autowipers switched off, the wipers
operate in intermittent mode.
