Use the rotary control to adjust the
sensitivity of the rain sensor. There are six
sensitivity settings. When you set the
control to low sensitivity (the first
position), the wipers turn on when there is
a large amount of moisture on the
windshield. When you set the control to
high sensitivity (the sixth position), the
wipers will turn on when there is a small
amount of moisture on the windshield.

Keep the outside of the windshield clean.
The rain sensor is very sensitive. If the area
around the mirror is dirty, then the wipers
may operate if dirt, mist or insects hit the
windshield.

Wet or winter driving conditions with ice,
snow or salty road mist can cause
inconsistent and unexpected wiping or
smearing. You can do the following to help
keep your windshield clear:

Lower the sensitivity of the autowipers
to reduce the amount of smearing.

Switch to normal or high-speed wipe.

Switch off the autowipers.

Note: Fully defrost the windshield before
switching on the windshield wipers.

Note: Make sure you switch off the
windshield wipers before entering a car
wash.

Note: Clean the windshield and wiper
blades if they begin to leave streaks or
smears. If that does not resolve the issue,
install new wiper blades.

Note: If you switch on the autolamps
feature in conjunction with autowipers, your
low beam headlamps will turn on
automatically when the rain sensor turns on
the windshield wipers to a normal wipe
speed.

WINDSHIELD WASHERS

Note: Do not operate the washers when
the washer reservoir is empty. This may
cause the washer pump to overheat.
