If the moving wipers become blocked
partway through a sweep by ice or other
deposits on the glass, the wipers may tem-
porarily stop operating to prevent the
motor from overheating. In this case, park
the vehicle in a safe place, put the opera-
tion mode in OFF, and then remove the
ice or other deposits. Because the wipers
will start operating again after the wiper
motor cools down, check that the wipers
operate before using them.
Do not use the wipers when the glass is
dry.
They may scratch the glass surface and
the blades wear out prematurely.
Before using the wipers in cold weather,
check that the wiper blades are not frozen
onto the glass. The motor may burn out if
the wipers are used with the blades frozen
onto the glass.

The washer fluid will be sprayed

After the automatic operation, the rear win-
dow wiper will stop operating if the knob is
in the “OFF” position. If the knob is in the

It is possible to set the rear window wiper to
perform the automatic operation only if the
selector lever is put in the “R” position while
the rear window wiper is operating with the
knob in the “INT” position.
