NOTE
● To protect the rubber parts of the wipers, this operation of
the wipers does not take place when the vehicle is station-
ary and the ambient temperature is about 0 °C or lower.
●
Do not cover the sensor by affixing a sticker or label to the
windscreen. Also, do not put any water-repellent coating
on the windscreen. The rain sensor would not be able to
detect the extent of rain, and the wipers might stop work-
ing normally.
● In the following cases, the rain sensor may be malfunc-
tioning.
Have the vehicle inspected by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
• When the wipers operate at a constant interval despite
changes in the extent of rain.
• When the wipers do not operate even though it is rain-
ing.
● The wipers may automatically operate when things such
as rain, dust, mud, insects, tree sap, oil or salt are affixed
to the windscreen on top of the rain sensor or when the
windscreen is frozen. (Wrong operation may also occur
due to strong electromagnetic waves, etc.) Objects affixed
to the windscreen will stop the wipers when the wipers
cannot remove them.
To make the wipers operate again, place the lever in the
“LO” or “HI” position.
●
Contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point when replacing the windscreen or reinforcing the
glass around the sensor.
