possible.
– The wipers stop operation if the
ambient temperature decreases
to 58F (−158C) or lower. The
wipers resume operation when
the ambient temperature in-
creases to 148F (−108C) or higher.
If you need to operate the wipers
under 58F (−158C), push the wiper
control lever down to the low
speed position or high speed
position.
– The wipers may not operate if the
temperature around the rain sen-
sor is more than 1768F (808C)
because the system cannot de-
tect the amount of raindrops
under these temperatures.
. This system is also equipped with
the vehicle speed interlocking inter-
mittent wiper function. When the
vehicle stops, the wiper operation
interval will become longer com-
pared with that while driving.
. This system may malfunction in a
location with strong radio waves or
noise.
. If the wiper switch is in the "AUTO"
position and the wipers do not
operate when it rains, or the wiper
switch is in the "Low speed" posi-
tion and the wipers do not operate,
turn the wiper switch to the "High
speed" position.
In this case, contact your SUBARU
dealer.

Wiper and washer
To turn the wipers on, push the wiper
control lever down. With the wiper switch in
the "AUTO" position, the wipers operate
automatically when the rain sensor detects
falling rain. The wiper timing is automati-
cally adjusted depending on the amount of
rain.
To turn the wipers off, return the lever to
the " "/"OFF" position.
For a single wipe of the wipers, push the
lever up. The wipers operate until you
release the lever.
NOTE
The automatic adjusting mode of the
wiper timing can be changed from the
rain-sensing mode to the vehicle speed
interlocking mode. The setting can be
changed by a SUBARU dealer. For more
details, we recommend that you con-
tact a SUBARU dealer.
