rain sensor

I read the manual and was told that i need to turn the rain sensor off when I wash the car. Can"t figure out how to do that and the manual is not much help.

That made me laugh ... Thanks!

The sensor select is probably in one of the menu settings. I need to slow mine down. They're just too wacky in light rain.

Sensitivity is in the settings.

When the auto wipers are on, there's a wiper with an A in the tach. You turn them on/off by pressing the tip of the stalk.

I found that rain-X over the sensor area really helped with its ability to have a realistic wipe to rain ratio.
