Subaru Forester: Wipers and washers / AUTO control: (if equipped)

When the vehicle is in the ON position and the windshield wiper switch is set to AUTO, observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury:

• Keep your hands and fingers away from the upper area of the windshield where the rain sensor is installed.

• Do not clean the sensor area using a wet cloth while the system is active.

• Avoid pressing directly against the windshield in the area surrounding the rain sensor.

• Before washing the Kia Telluride, move the wiper switch to the OFF position. Leaving the switch in AUTO may cause the wipers to activate unexpectedly and potentially damage the blades or arms.

• Do not remove or tamper with the rain sensor cover located near the upper passenger side of the windshield. Damage to sensor components may not be covered by the vehicle warranty.

• During winter weather, always place the wiper switch in the OFF position before starting the vehicle. Remove all snow and ice from the windshield and fully defrost the glass before operating the wipers to prevent blade or motor damage.

• If the windshield is tinted, ensure that tinting solution or installation fluids do not enter the rain sensor area at the upper center of the windshield, as this may affect system operation or damage related components.
