To prevent the battery being discharged,
the lights will automatically turn off when
the key is removed and the door is left
opened for about 20 minutes.
FOOT LIGHTS
The foot lights also come on when the
engine switch is in the “ON” position with
the automatic transmission selector lever
in the “P” position. When the selector le-
ver is moved out of “P” position, the foot
lights will be dimmed.
This operation can be customized. For de-
tails, ask your Toyota dealer.
To turn on the windshield wipers, move
the lever to the desired setting.
The engine switch must be in the “ON”
position.

For a single sweep of the windshield,
push the lever up and release it.
The “INT” band lets you adjust the wiping
time interval when the wiper lever is in
the intermittent position (position 1). Twist
the band upward to decrease the time
between sweeps, and downward to in-
crease it.
To squirt washer fluid, pull the lever
toward you.
If the windshield wipers are off, they will
operate a couple of times after the washer
squirts.
For instructions on adding washer fluid,
see “Adding washer fluid” on page 422 in
Section 7−3.
In freezing weather, warm the windshield
with the defroster before using the washer.
This will help prevent the washer fluid
from freezing on your windshield, which
can block your vision.
NOTICE
Do not operate the wipers if the wind-
shield is dry. It may scratch the
glass.
