Washer/wiper dual operation
Wipers will automatically operate a
couple of times after the washer
squirts.
(After operating several times, the
wipers operate once more time
after a short delay to prevent drip-
ping. However, the dripping pre-
vention does not operate while the
vehicle is moving.)
■The windshield wiper and washer can be operated when
Vehicles without a smart key system:
The engine switch is in the “ON” position.
Vehicles with a smart key system:

■If no windshield washer fluid sprays
Check that the washer nozzles are not blocked if there is washer fluid in the
windshield washer fluid reservoir.
■When stopping the engine in an emergency while driving

shield wipers will operate in high speed operation. After the vehicle is
stopped, operation will return to normal when the engine switch is turned to
“ON” position (vehicles without a smart key system) or IGNITION ON mode
(vehicles with a smart key system), or operation will stop when the driver’
door is opened.
