2020 MAZDA MODEL CX-30 light

*1 When the wiper lever is switched to theAUTO position, the indicator light turns on.
Auto-wiper control*
When the wiper lever is in the AUTO
position, the rain sensor senses the
amount of rainfall on the windshield
and turns the wipers on or off
automatically (off ―intermittent―low
speed ―high speed).

The sensitivity of the rain sensor can be
adjusted by turning the switch on the
wiper lever.
From the center position (normal),
rotate the switch upward (+ direction)
for higher sensitivity (faster response)
or rotate it downward (- direction) for
less sensitivity (slower response).

1. Switch
2. Higher sensitivity
3. Center position
4. Less sensitivity
CAUTION
 Do not shade the rain sensor by
adhering a sticker or a label on the
windshield. Otherwise the rain
sensor will not operate correctly.
When the wiper lever is in the AUTO
position and the ignition is switched
ON, the wipers may move
automatically in the following cases:
 If the windshield above the rain
sensor is touched or wiped with a
cloth.
 If the windshield is struck with a
hand or other object from either
outside or inside the vehicle.
Keep hands and scrapers clear of the
windshield when the wiper lever is in
the AUTO position and the ignition is
switched ON as fingers could be
pinched or the wipers and wiper
blades damaged when the wipers
activate automatically.
If you are going to clean the
windshield, be sure the wipers are
turned off completely (when it is
most likely that the engine is left
running) this is particularly important
when clearing ice and snow.

NOTE
Switching the auto-wiper lever from
the OFF to the AUTO position while
driving activates the windshield
wipers once, after which they
operate according to the rainfall
amount.
The auto-wiper control may not
operate when the rain sensor
temperature is about －10 °C (14 °F)
or lower, or about 85 °C (185 °F) or
higher.
If the windshield is coated with
water repellent, the rain sensor may
not be able to sense the amount of
rainfall correctly and the auto-wiper
control may not operate properly.
If dirt or foreign matter (such as ice
or matter containing salt water)
adheres to the windshield above the
rain sensor, or if the windshield is
iced, it could cause the wipers to
move automatically. However, if the
wipers cannot remove this ice, dirt or
foreign matter, the auto-wiper
control will stop operation. In this
case, set the wiper lever to the low
speed position or high speed
position for manual operation, or
remove the ice, dirt or foreign matter
by hand to restore the auto-wiper
operation.
If the auto-wiper lever is left in the
AUTO position, the wipers could
operate automatically from the effect
of strong light sources,
electromagnetic waves, or infrared
light because the rain sensor uses an
optical sensor. It is recommended
that the auto-wiper lever be
switched to the OFF position other
than when driving the vehicle under
rainy conditions.
If the headlight switch and the
windshield wiper switch are in
AUTO, and the wipers are operated
at low or high speed by the auto
wiper control for several seconds,
bad weather conditions are
determined and the headlights may
be turned on.
The auto-wiper control functions can
be turned off.
Refer to the Settings section in the
Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
▼ Windshield Washer
Pull the wiper lever toward you to
spray washer fluid and operate the
windshield wipers several times. The
washer fluid is sprayed only while the
windshield wipers move out of their
stowed positions to the point where
they start reversing back.

1. OFF
2. Washer
NOTE
If the windshield washer is turned on
when the windshield wipers are not
operating, the windshield wipers
operate a few times.
If you pull the wiper lever while the
windshield wipers are reversing back
to their stowed positions, the next
time the washer fluid is sprayed is
during the next cycle.
If the washer does not work, inspect
the fluid level (page 6-19). If the fluid
level is normal, consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.

▼ Gate operator/Canadian
Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out” (or
quit) after several seconds of
transmission
― which may not be long
enough for HomeLink to pick up the
signal during programming. Similar to
this Canadian law, some U.S. gate
operators are designed to “time-out”
in the same manner.

If you live in Canada or are having
difficulties programming a gate
operator by using the programming
procedures (regardless of where you
live), replace Step 3 of Programming
