When driving
LX570_U (OM60F86U)
■ The windshield wiper and washer can be operated when
The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode.
■ Effects of vehicle speed on wiper operation
Vehicle speed affects the wiper operation when the washer is being used (delay
until drip prevention wiper sweep occurs) even when the wipers are not in “AUTO”
mode.
With selected, wiper operation will be switched from low speed to intermit-
tent wiper operation only when the vehicle is stationary.
(However, the mode cannot be switched when the adjustment band for the sensor
sensitivity is set to the highest position.)
■ “A U TO ” m o d e
● If the wiper switch is turned to “AUTO” position while the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode, the wiper will operate once to show
that “AUTO” mode is activated.
● If the temperature of the rain drop sensor is 176F (80C) or higher, or 14F
(-10C) or lower, automatic operation may not occur. In this case, operate the
wipers in any mode other than “AUTO”.
● The raindrop sensor judges the amount of
raindrops.
● The sensitivity of sensor can be adjusted by
twisting the band.
