Since different drivers have different setting preferences, it is recommended that the mid-range setting, position three, be used initially. For more wipes, select the higher settings; for fewer wipes, select the lower settings located closer to the off position on the multifunction lever.

The rain sensor will automatically control the frequency of the wipes from off to high speed according to the weather conditions. The wipers can be left in a Rainsense™ mode even when it is not raining.

When Rainsense™ II is active, the headlamps will turn on automatically after approximately eight wipes.
