ously if the lever is held in

NOTICE
If there is heavy accumulation of
snow or ice on the windshield, de‐
frost the windshield for about
10 minutes, or until the snow and/or
ice is removed before using the
windshield wipers to ensure proper
operation. If you do not remove the
snow and/or ice before using the
wiper and wash-er, it may damage
the Wiper and washer system.
Auto control (if equipped)
The rain sensor located on the upper
end of the windshield glass senses the
amount of rainfall and controls the
wiping cycle for the proper interval.
The more it rains, the faster the wiper
operates. When the rain stops, the wip‐
er stops.
To vary the speed setting, turn the
speed control knob (1).
If the wiper switch is set in AUTO mode
when the Engine Start/Stop button is
ON, the wiper will operate once to per‐
form a self-check of the system. Set
the wiper to OFF / O position when the
wiper is not in use.
CAUTION
When the Engine Start/Stop button
is ON and the windshield wiper
switch is placed in the AUTO mode,
use caution in the following situa‐
tions to avoid any injury to the
hands or other parts of the body:
• Do not touch the upper end of the
windshield glass facing the rain
sensor.
