2-3. Operating the lights and windshield wipers
■ Rain drop sensor (vehicles with rain-sensing windshield wipers)
If the wiper switch is turned to the while the “ENGINE START STOP”
switch is in IGNITION ON mode, the wipers will operate once to show that
“AUTO” mode is activated.
■ In extremely hot or cold weather
The system will turn off if the windshield gets extremely hot (at more than 194F
[90C]) or cold (at less than 5.0F [-15C]).
■ If no windshield washer fluid sprays
Check that the washer nozzles are not blocked if there is washer fluid in the wind-
shield washer fluid reservoir.
■ Caution regarding the use of windshield wipers in “AUTO” mode (vehicles with
rain-sensing windshield wipers)
The windshield wipers may operate unexpectedly if the sensor is touched or the
windshield is subject to vibration in “AUTO” mode. Take care that your fingers or
anything else do not become caught in the windshield wipers.
The raindrop sensor judges the amount of
raindrops.
An optical sensor is adopted. It may not oper-
ate properly when sunlight from the rising or
setting of the sun intermittently strikes the
windshield, or if bugs etc. are present on the
windshield.
