■The windshield wiper and washer can be
operated when
The engine switch is in IGNITION ON
mode.
■Dripping prevention wiper sweep
After performing a washing and wiping
operation several times, the wipers operate
one more time after a short delay to prevent
dripping.
However, this final wiper operation will not
be performed while driving.
■Effects of vehicle speed on wiper opera-
tion (vehicles with rain-sensing wind-
shield wipers)
Vehicle speed affects the following even
when the wipers are not in AUTO mode.
●Intermittent wiper interval

being used (delay until drip prevention
wiper sweep occurs)
With low speed windshield wiper opera-
tion selected, wiper operation will be
switched from low speed to intermittent
wiper operation only when the vehicle is
stationary.
■Raindrop sensor (vehicles with
rain-sensing windshield wipers)
●The raindrop sensor judges the amount
of raindrops.
An optical sensor is adopted. It may not
operate properly when sunlight from the
rising or setting of the sun intermittently
strikes the windshield, or if bugs etc. are
present on the windshield.
●If the wiper is turned to AUTO mode
while the engine switch is in IGNITION ON mode, the wipers will operate once
to show that AUTO mode is activated.
●If the temperature of
the raindrop sensor
is 185°F (85°C) or higher, or -22°F
(-30°C) or lower, automatic operation
may not occur. In this case, operate the
wipers in any mode other than AUTO
mode.

shield washer fluid reservoir.
WARNING
■Caution regarding the use of wind-
shield wipers in AUTO mode
The windshield wipers may operate
unexpectedly if the se nsor is touched or
the windshield is subj ect to vibration in
AUTO mode. Take care that your fingers
or anything else do not become caught
in the windshield wipers.
■Caution regarding the use of washer
fluid
When it is cold, do not use the washer
fluid until the windshield becomes warm.
The fluid may freeze on the windshield
and cause low visibility. This may lead to
an accident, resulting in death or serious
injury.
