AUTO control (if equipped)
The rain sensor located on the upper
end of the windshield glass senses
the amount of rainfall and controls
the wiping cycle for the proper inter-
val. The more it rains, the faster the
wiper operates. When the rain stops,
the wiper stops. To vary the speed
setting, turn the speed control knob
(1). If the wiper switch is set in AUTO
mode when POWER button is in the
ON position, the wiper will operate
once to perform a self-check of the
system. Set the wiper to OFF posi-
tion when the wiper is not in use.
To avoid personal injury from
the windshield wipers, when the
power cell module is running
and the windshield wiper switch
is placed in the AUTO mode:
•
Do not touch the upper end of
the windshield glass facing
the rain sensor.
•
Do not wipe the upper end of
the windshield glass with a
damp or wet cloth.
•
Do not put pressure on the
windshield glass.
WARNING
•
If there is heavy accumulation
of snow or ice on the wind-
shield, defrost the windshield
for about 10 minutes, or until
the snow and/or ice is
removed before using the
windshield wipers to ensure
proper operation.
•
When you operate the wipers,
if your vehicle has a problem
in any part of the wiper opera-
tion system, the wiper may
operate in the LO mode
regardless of the wiper switch
position. In this case, have
your vehicle checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI Tucson
Fuel Cell dealer as soon as
possible.
•
When the power cell module
is turned off, the wiper blade
sometimes may move slightly
to help reduce the deteriora-
tion of the windshield wipers.
