Front windscreen wipers

Operates as follows when the Engine Start/Stop button is in the ON position.

  • HI: The wiper runs at a higher speed.

  • LO: The wiper runs at a lower speed.

  • INT: Wiper operates intermittently at the same wiping intervals. To vary the speed setting, turn the speed control knob.

  • OFF: Wipers are not in operation.

  • MIST: For a single wiping cycle, push the lever downwards and release. The wipers operate continuously if the lever is held in this position.

If there is heavy accumulation of snow or ice on the windscreen, defrost the windscreen for about 10 minutes, or until the snow and/or ice is removed to prevent damage to the wiper and washer system.

AUTO (Automatic) control

2C_RainSensor

The rain sensor located on the upper end of the windscreen glass senses the amount of rainfall and controls the wiping cycle.

To change the sensitivity setting, turn the sensitivity control knob.

If the wiper switch is set in AUTO mode when the Engine Start/Stop button is in the ON position, the wiper will operate once to perform a self-check of the system. Set the wiper to the OFF position when the wiper is not in use.

To prevent personal injury:

  • Do not touch the upper end of the windscreen glass facing the rain sensor.

  • Do not wipe the upper end of the windscreen glass with a damp or wet cloth.

  • Do not put pressure on the windscreen glass.

  • When washing the vehicle, set the wiper switch in the OFF position to stop the auto wiper operation.

  • Do not remove the sensor cover located on the upper end of the passenger side windscreen glass.
