Switches and Controls

Form No. 8S18-EA-03I

One-touch wipers

For a single wiping cycle, push the lever 
up to MIST.

Do not shade the rain sensor by 
adhering a sticker or a label on the 
windshield. Otherwise the rain 
sensor will not operate correctly.

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:

If the windshield above the rain 
sensor is touched.

If the windshield above the rain 
sensor is wiped with a cloth.

If the windshield is given a 
shock.

If the rain sensor is given a shock 
from inside the vehicle.

Be careful not to pinch hands or 
fingers as it may cause injury, or 
damage the wipers. When washing 
or servicing your Mazda, make sure 
the wiper lever is in the OFF 
position.

or lower, or about 85

higher.

If the windshield is coated with 
water repellent, the rain sensor may 
not be able to sense the amount of 
rainfall correctly and auto-wiper 
control may not operate properly.

If dirt or foreign matter (e.g. ice or 
matter containing salt water) 
adheres to the windshield above the 
rain sensor or if the windshield is 
iced, it could cause the wipers to 
move automatically. However, if the 
wipers cannot remove this ice, dirt 
or foreign matter, the auto-wiper 
control will stop operation. In this 
case, pull the wiper lever to the 1 or 
2 position for manual operation, or 
remove the ice, dirt or foreign 
matter by hand to restore the auto-
wiper operation.
