Switches and Controls
Ø When the wiper lever is in the
AUTO position and the ignition
switch is in the ON position, the
wipers may move automatically in
the following cases:
Ø
If the windshield above the rain
sensor is touched.
Ø
If the windshield above the rain
sensor is wiped with a cloth.
Ø
If the windshield is struck with
a hand or other object.
Ø
If the rain sensor is struck with
a hand or other object from
inside the vehicle.
Keep hands and scrapers clear of
the windshield when the ignition
switch is in the ON position as
fingers pinched or the wipers and
wiper blades damaged when they
activate automatically. If you are
going to clean the windshield, be
sure the wipers are turned off
completely - this is particularly
important when clearing ice and
snow - when it is particularly
tempting to leave the engine
running.
