Wiper Operation

The windshield wipers and washers can be used when the vehicle is on. Move the
wiper lever up or down to the desired position.
Headlight-Wiper Integration*
When the headlights are in the AUTO position, they automatically turn on when the
front wipers operate several times within a certain interval. The headlights turn off
shortly after the wipers are turned off or if there is enough ambient light.
NOTICE
Do not use the wipers when the windshield is dry. The windshield will get
scratched or the rubber blades will get damaged.
In cold weather, the blades may freeze to the windshield, becoming stuck.
Operating the wipers in this condition may damage the wipers. Use the defroster
to warm the windshield or manually clear the windshield of ice and snow before
turning on the wipers.
