AUTOWIPERS
(If Equipped)
Note: Fully defrost the windshield before
you switch the windshield wipers on.
Note: Make sure you switch the windshield
wipers and ignition off before using an
automatic car wash.
Autowipers uses a rain sensor located in the
area around the interior mirror. The rain
sensor monitors the amount of moisture on
the windshield and automatically turns the
wipers on. It will adjust the wiper speed by
the amount of moisture that the sensor
detects on the windshield.

Use the rotary control to adjust the sensitivity
of the autowipers. When you select low
sensitivity, the wipers will operate when the
sensor detects a large amount of water on
the windshield. When you select high
sensitivity, the wipers will operate when the
sensor detects a small amount of water on
the windshield.
The autowipers feature is active and ready
when the wiper lever is in the first position
and selected in the information display. You
can change the autowipers feature to
intermittent wipers through the information
display. See General Information (page 108).
Note: Check your wiper function in the
information display. See General
Information (page 108). The autowipers
feature functions only when you select the
menu choice in the information display and
you move the wiper lever up to the first
position. The autowipers feature then
remains on in the information display menu
until you change it to intermittent wipe.
