wiper arm may be damaged.
RAIN-SENSING AUTO WIPER
SYSTEM (if so equipped)
CAUTION
• Do not touch the rain sensor and
around it when the wiper switch is in
the AUTO position and the ignition
switch is in the ON position. The wip-
ers may operate unexpectedly and
cause an injury or may damage a
wiper. •
The rain-sensing auto wipers are in-
tended for use during rain. If the
switch is lef t in the AUTO position, the
wipers may operate unexpectedly
when dirt, fingerprints, oil film or in-
sects are stuck on or around the sen-
sor. The wipers may also operate
when exhaust gas or moisture affect
the rain sensor.
• When the windshield glass is coated
with water repellent, the speed of the
rain-sensing auto wipers may be
higher even though the amount of
the rainfall is small.
• Be sure to turn off the rain-sensing
auto wiper system when you use a
car wash.
• The rain-sensing auto wipers may
not operate if rain does not hit the
rain sensor even if it is raining.
•
Using Genuine NISSAN wiper blades is
recommended for proper operation of
the rain-sensing auto wiper system.
For additional information, see “Wind-
shield wiper blades” (P. 8-19).

The rain-sensing auto wiper system can

just the wiper speed depending on the
rainfall and the vehicle speed by using the
rain sensor located on the upper part of
the windshield.
To set the rain-sensing auto wiper system,
place the lever in the AUTO position
O1. The
wiper will sweep once while the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
The rain sensor sensitivity level can be ad-
justed by turning the knob toward the rear
O2(Low) or toward the frontO3(High).
– High — High sensitive operation
– Low — Low sensitive operation
To turn the rain-sensing auto wiper system
off, rotate the lever to the OFF position, or
rotate the lever to the low or high position.
The rain-sensing feature may be disabled.
For additional information, see “Vehicle in-
formation display–7 inch (18 cm) Type A”
(P. 2-22) or “Vehicle information display—12.3
inch (31 cm) Type B” (P. 2-45).
REAR SWITCH OPERATION
WARNING
In freezing temperatures the washer
solution may freeze on the rear window
and obscure your vision which may
lead to an accident. Warm the rear win-
dow with the defroster before you
wash the rear window.
CAUTION
• Do not operate the washer continu-
ously for more than 30 seconds.
• Do not operate the washer if the
windshield-washer fluid reservoir is
empty.
• Do not fill the windshield-washer
fluid reservoir with windshield-
washer fluid concentrates at full
strength. Some methyl alcohol
based windshield-washer fluid con-
centrates may permanently stain the
grille if spilled while filling the
windshield-washer fluid reservoir.
• Pre-mix windshield-washer fluid
concentrates with water to the
manufacturer’s recommended levels
before pouring the fluid into the
windshield-washer fluid reservoir.
Do not use the windshield-washer
fluid reservoir to mix the windshield-
washer fluid concentrate and water.

• Turn on the headlights if the windshieldwipers make multiple continuous passes
within approximately one minute of the
first pass (if so equipped). The headlights
remain on until the wipers are turned off
for a short period of time.
NOTE:
Autolight activation sensitivity (if so
equipped) and the time delay for auto-
light shutoff can be adjusted. For addi-
tional information, see “Vehicle infor-
mation display–7 inch (18 cm) Type A”
(P. 2-22) or “Vehicle information
display—12.3 inch (31 cm) Type B”
(P. 2-45).
To turn on the autolight system:
• Place the headlight switch in the AUTOposition
O1.
• Place the ignition switch in the ON position.
• The autolight system automatically turns the headlights on and off.
Initially, if the ignition switch is turned OFF
and a door is opened and lef t open, the
headlights remain ON for a period of time. If
another door is opened while the head-
lights are on, then the timer is reset. To turn the autolight system off, place the
switch in the OFF,
,orposition.
The headlights will turn on automatically at
twilight or in rainy weather (when the wind-
shield wiper is operated continuously).
If the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position and one of the doors is opened
and this condition is continued, the head-
lights remain on for 5 minutes.
Be sure you do not put anything on top
of the autolight sensor located in the top
side of the instrument panel
O1. The au-
tolight sensor controls the autolight; if it
is covered, the autolight sensor reacts as
if it is dark out and the headlights will
illuminate. If this occurs while parked
with the engine off and the ignition
switch placed in the ON position, your
vehicle's battery could become
discharged.
