| Splash |
When integrated rain sensor detects a high level of water (splash) in Direct or Intermittent mode, the system switches from Park to High speed. Then, wiping is done once in High speed and once more in Low speed. If the condition of rainfall does not change after wiping, it returns to the original condition (Direct or Intermittent). |
| Smearing |
Smearing is a thin oil film that has dried fast and occurs when a small amount of rainfall is wiped by a dirty or worn-out wiper blade. Operational signal should not be issued when smearing occurs in Direct or Intermittent mode. |
| Dirt |
When no change is detected after wiping, integrated rain sensor determines that the windshield is dirty. In this state, operational signal should not be issued. If the windshield becomes clean (for example, by washer fluid), the integrated rain sensor returns to the normal condition. |
| Automatic change of sensitivity between day and night |
Integrated rain sensor automatically adjusts the sensitivity between day and night using a day & night sensor. |
| Compensating for the level of illumination in the surrounding area |
The system operates normally by compensating for the interference due to illumination in the surrounding area. |
| Washer fluid |
Integrated rain sensor does not respond to the washer fluid during the Washer mode. In other words, wiping speed does not change even if the washer fluid is sprayed (automatic operation of the washer pump is not reflected in the functioning of integrated rain sensor). |
