Note: If you switch autolamps on in
conjunction with autowipers, your low
beam headlamps will illuminate
automatically when the rain sensor
activates the windshield wipers
continuously.
Note: Wet road conditions can cause
unexpected wiping or smearing.
To reduce smearing we recommend
the following:
• Lower the sensitivity of the
autowipers.
• Switch to normal or high speed
wipe.
• Switch the autowipers off.

The wipers will function when
moisture is detected on the
windshield. The rain sensor will
continue to monitor the amount of
moisture on the windshield and adjust
the speed of the wipers automatically.
This feature can be switched on or off
in the information display. See
General Information (page 100).
Use the rotary control to adjust the
sensitivity of the rain sensor. With low
sensitivity, the wipers will operate
when the sensor detects a large
amount of moisture on the windshield.
With high sensitivity, the wipers will
operate when the sensor detects a
small amount of moisture on the
windshield.
Keep the outside of the windshield
clean. Sensor performance will be
affected if the area around the interior
mirror is dirty. The rain sensor is very
sensitive and the wipers may operate
if dirt, mist or flies hit the windshield.
WINDSHIELD WASHERS
Note: Do not operate the washers
when the washer reservoir is empty.
This may cause the washer pump to
overheat.

The washers will spray for as long as
you pull the lever toward you. When
you release the lever, the wipers will
operate for a short time.
