Wipers and Washers

NOTICE

Do not use the wipers when the windshield is dry.
The windshield will get scratched, or the rubber 
blades will get damaged.

NOTICE

Turn the washers off if no washer fluid comes out.
The pump may get damaged.

The wiper motor may stop motor operation 
temporarily to prevent an overload. Wiper operation 
will return to normal within a few minutes, once the 
circuit has returned to normal.

If the vehicle speeds up while the wipers are 
operating intermittently, the length of the wipe 
interval shortens.
When the vehicle speeds up, the wiper operation’s 
shortest delay setting ( ) and the 

LO

 setting become 

the same.

NOTICE

In cold weather, the blades may freeze to the 
windshield.
Operating the wipers in this condition may damage 
the wipers. Use the defroster to warm the 
windshield, then turn the wipers on.
