Wiper operation under these conditions can
scratch the windshield and damage the wip-
ers.
With the lever in the “AUTO” (rain sensor)
position, it is possible to adjust the sensitivity
of the rain sensor by turning the knob (B).
CAUTION
 With the ignition switch or the operation
mode in ON and the lever in the “AUTO”
position, the wipers may automatically oper-
ate in the situations described below.
• When cleaning the outside surface of the
windshield, if you touch the rain sensor.
• When cleaning the outside surface of the
windshield, if you wipe with a cloth the rain
sensor.
• When using an automatic car wash.
• A physical shock is applied to the wind-
shield.
• A physical shock is applied to the rain sen-
sor.
If your hands get trapped, you could suffer
injuries or the wipers could malfunction. Be
sure to turn the ignition switch to the “OFF”
position or put the operation mode in OFF, or
move the lever to the “OFF” position to
deactivate the rain sensor.
NOTE
 To protect the rubber parts of the wipers, this
operation of the wipers does not take place
when the vehicle is stationary and the ambi-
ent temperature is about 32 °F (0 °C) or
lower, even if the lever is put in the “AUTO”
position.
 Do not cover the sensor by affixing a sticker
or label to the windshield. Also, do not put
any water-repellent coating on the wind-
shield. The rain sensor would not be able to
detect the extent of rain, and the wipers
might stop working normally.
 In the following cases, the rain sensor may
be malfunctioning. Have the vehicle checked
at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or
a repair facility of your choice.
• When the wipers operate at a constant inter-
val despite changes in the extent of rain.
• When the wipers do not operate even
though it is raining.
CAUTION
 The wipers may automatically operate when
things such as insects or foreign objects are
affixed to the windshield on top of the rain
sensor or when the windshield is frozen.
Objects affixed to the windshield will stop
the wipers when the wipers cannot remove
them. To operate the wipers again, move the
lever to the “LO” or “HI” position.
Also, the wipers may operate automatically
due to strong direct sunlight or electromag-
netic wave. To stop the wipers, move the
lever to the “OFF” position.

Contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice
when replacing the windshield glass.
