wiper operation (vehicles with
rain-sensing windshield wipers)
Even when the wipers are not in
AUTO mode, vehicle speed affects

intermittent wiper operation only
when the vehicle is stationary.
(However, when the sensor sensitiv-
ity is adjusted to the highest level,
the mode cannot be switched.)
■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 b ugs, etc., are
present on the windshield.
●If the wiper is turned to AUTO
mode while the power switch is in
ON, the wipers will operate once
to show that AUTO mode is acti-
vated.
●If the temperature of the raindrop
sensor is 185°F (85°C) or higher,
or 5°F (-15°C) or lower, automatic
operation may not occur. In this
case, operate the wipers in any
mode other than AUTO mode.
