Rain sensor (if so equipped)
Can only be used when the ignition switch or the operation
mode is in ON.
If the lever is put in the “AUTO” position, the rain sensor (A)

etc.) and the wipers will operate automatically.
Keep the lever in the “OFF” position if the windshield is dirty
and the weather is dry.
Wiper operation under these conditions can scratch the wind-
shield and damage the wipers.
