Driving
intermittent wiper operation when
the vehicle is stationary. (However,
when the sensor sensitivity is
adjusted to the highest level, the
mode will not switch.)
■Raindrop sensor
●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 switch is turned to the
position while the power
switch is in ON, the wipers will
operate once to show that “AUTO”
mode is activated.
●When the sensor sensitivity ring is
turned toward hi gh while in the
“AUTO” mode, the wipers will
operate once to indicate that the
sensor sensitivity is enhanced.
●If the temperature of the raindrop
sensor is 185°F (85°C) or higher,
or 5°F (-15°C) or lower, the auto-
matic operation may not occur. In
this case, operate the wipers in
any mode other than “AUTO”.
■Front door opening linked wind-
shield wiper stop function
When is selected and the
windshield wipers are operating, if a
front door is opened while the vehi-
cle is stopped and the P position is
selected, operation of the wind- shield wipers will be stopped to pre-
vent anyone near the vehicle from
being sprayed by water from the
wipers. When the front door is
closed, wiper operation will resume.
■If no windshield washer fluid
sprays
Check that the washer nozzles are
not blocked if there is washer fluid in
the windshield washer fluid reser-
voir.
WARNING
■Caution regarding the use of
windshield wipers in “AUTO”
mode
The windshield wipers may oper-
ate unexpectedly if the sensor is
touched or the windshield is sub-
ject 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
windshield cleaning 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.
NOTICE
■When the washer fluid tank is
empty
Do not operate the switch continu-
ally as the washer fluid pump may
overheat.
