The windscreen wiper control is on

The windscreen wipers are
controlled by turning the band with

the

wipers off.

to

Clear ice and snow from the wiper
blades before using them. If frozen
to the windscreen, carefully loosen
or thaw them. Damaged wiper
blades should be replaced. See
Wiper Blade Replacement on
page 10-25.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the
wiper motor. An internal circuit
breaker to the motor will stop the
motor until it cools down.
Wiper Parking
If the ignition is put in OFF while the
wipers are on
w, 1, or 3 INT,
they will immediately stop.
If
z FRONT is then moved to
OFF before the driver door is
opened or within 10 minutes, the
wipers will restart and move to the
base of the windscreen.
If the ignition is put in OFF while the
wipers are performing wipes due to
windscreen washing or Rainsense,
the wipers continue to run until they
reach the base of the windscreen.
Rainsense™
With Rainsense, a sensor near the
top centre of the windscreen detects
the amount of water on the
windscreen and controls the
frequency of the windscreen wiper.
Keep this area of the windscreen
clear of debris to allow for best
system performance.
3 INT (Rainsense Wipe
Sensitivity): Turn the
z FRONT
band on the wiper lever to adjust the
sensitivity when Rainsense is
turned on.
