The rain sensor (A) located on the
upper end of the windshield glass
senses the amount of rainfall and
controls the wiping cycle for the
proper interval.The more it rains, the
faster the wiper operates. When the
rain stops, the wipers stop.
To vary the speed setting, turn the
speed control knob (1).
If the wiper switch is set in AUTO
mode when the engine start/stop but-
ton is in the ON position, the wiper will
operate once to perform a self-check
of the system. Set the wiper to OFF
position when the wiper is not in use.
