Windshield Wipers and
Washer
▼Windshield Wipers and Washer
The ignition must be switched ON to
use the wipers.
WARNING
Use only windshield washer
fluid or
plain water in the reservoir:
Using radiator antifreeze as washer
fluid is dangerous. If sprayed on the
windshield, it will dirty the windshield,
affect your visibility, and could result in
an accident.
Only use windshield washer fluid
mixed with anti-freeze protection in
freezing weather conditions:
Using windshield washer fluid without
anti-freeze protection in freezing
weather conditions is dangerous as it
could freeze on the windshield and
block your vision which could cause an
accident. In addition, make sure the
windshield is sufficiently warmed using
the defroster before spraying the
washer fluid.
CAUTION
 When the wipers are not used during
freezing temperatures or for a long
time, the wiper rubber may adhere
to the glass. If the wipers are
operated while adhered to the glass,
it could damage the wiper rubber
and motor.
 If the wipers are operated while the
glass is dry, th e glass could be
scratched and the wiper rubber
damaged. When the glass is dry,
spray washer fluid before operating
the wipers.

If the amount of washer fluid spray is
insufficient, do not use the washer
switch. If the washer switch
continues to be operated with no
washer fluid being sprayed, it could
lead to pump damage.
NOTE
If the windshield wipers are operated
under cold weather conditions or
during snowfall, they could stop due to
accumulated snow on the windshield.
If the windshield wipers stop due to
accumulated snow on the windshield,
park the vehicle in a safe place, turn
the wiper switch off, and then remove
the accumulated snow. If the wiper
switch is turned to another position
other than OFF, the wipers will
operate. If the wipers do not operate
even though the wiper switch is turned
to a position other than OFF, consult
an Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon
as possible.
▼ Windshield Wipers
Turn the wipers on by pressing the
lever up or down.

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).

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 ignition is switched ON
and the wiper lever is in the AUTO
position, the windshield wipers may
operate automatically in the
following cases:
 The area of the windshield above
the rain sensor is touched or wiped
with a cloth.
 The windshield or the rain sensor
area in the cabin is hit.
When the ignition is switched ON
and the wiper lever is in the AUTO
position, do not touch the
windshield or the windshield wipers
Otherwise, the windshield wipers
will operate automatically which
could catch your fingers or damage
the windshield wipers.
When removing ice or snow, or
cleaning the windshield, always
make sure the wiper lever is in the
OFF position.

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 6-20). If the fluid
level is normal, consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
