The concept
Without the rain sensor, the frequency of the

The rain sensor automatically controls the time
between wipes depending on the intensity of
the rainfall. The sensor is located on the wind‐
shield, directly behind the interior rearview mir‐
ror.
Activating/deactivating
Press the button on the wiper lever.
The LED in the wiper lever lights up and a wiping
operation is started. At temperatures below
32 ℉/0 ℃, a wiping operation is not started.
