2-3. Operating the lights and windshield wipers
2
When driving
■ In extremely hot or cold weather (vehicles with rain-sensing windshield wipers)
The rain-sensing wiper operation will turn off if the windshield gets extremely hot (at
more than 194F [90C]) or cold (at less than 5.0F [-15C]). If the windshield wip-
ers cease operation while in AUTO mode, change to a mode other than AUTO.
■ 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 any-
thing else do not become caught in the windshield wipers.
■ When the windshield is dry
Do not use the wipers, as they may damage the windshield.
■ When the washer fluid tank is empty
Damage to the washer fluid pump may be caused if the lever is pulled toward you
and held continually.
■ When a nozzle becomes blocked
Do not try to clear it with a pin or other object. The nozzle will be damaged.
