ary and the ambient temperature is about 32 °F (0 °C) or
lower.
● Do not cover the sensor by affixing a sticker or label to the
windshield. Also, do not put any water-repellent coating
on the windshield. The rain sensor would not be able to
detect the extent of rain, and the wipers might stop work-
ing normally.

tioning. Have the vehicle checked at an authorized Mit-
subishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.

tion. Also, the wipers may operate automatically due to
strong direct sunlight or electromagnetic wave. To stop
the wipers, place the lever in the “OFF” position.

repair facility of your choice when replacing the wind-
shield glass.
