  1. Wiper speed control switch

The rain sensor, located on the upper end of the windscreen, senses the amount of rainfall and controls the wiping cycle at the proper interval. The more it rains, the faster the wiper operates. When the rain stops, the wiper stops.

To change the speed setting, turn the speed control switch (1).

If you set the wiper switch to AUTO when the vehicle is in ON position, the wiper will operate once to check the system. Set the wiper to OFF when not in use.

WARNING

When the vehicle is in ON position and the windscreen wiper switch is set to AUTO, follow these precautions to avoid any injury to your hands or other body parts:

  • Do not touch the upper end of the windscreen glass facing the rain sensor.

  • Do not wipe the upper end of the windscreen glass with a damp or wet cloth.

  • Do not put pressure on the windscreen glass.

NOTE

  • When washing the vehicle, set the wiper to OFF to stop automatic wiper operation.

    The wiper may operate and be damaged if you set it to AUTO whilst washing the vehicle.

  • Do not remove the sensor cover located on the upper end of the windscreen glass. This may cause damage to the system parts that may not be covered by your vehicle warranty.

  • When starting the vehicle in winter, set the wiper to OFF. Otherwise, the wipers may operate, and ice may damage the windscreen wiper blades. Always remove all snow and ice and defrost the windscreen properly before operating the windscreen wipers.

  • If you tint the windscreen, be careful not to let any fluid get into the sensor in the top centre of the front windscreen, as the fluid may damage related parts.
