To turn the rear wiper on, turn the knob on the end of the wiper control lever upward to the “INT” or “ON” position.

To turn the wiper off, return the knob on the end of the lever to the “OFF” position.

With the switch turned to the “INT” position, the rear wiper will operate intermittently at intervals corresponding to the vehicle speed (longer when the vehicle speed is low, shorter when the vehicle speed is high).

When you subsequently move the select lever to the “R” position (AT models) or the shift lever to the reverse position (MT models), the rear wiper will switch to continuous operation. When you move the select lever/shift lever from the “R”/ reverse position to some other position, the rear wiper will return to intermittent operation.
