When the windshield washer switch on the column
switch is turned ON while the ignition switch is in
ACC or ON position, ETACS turns the windshield
washer relay ON.
When the windshield washer switch is kept ON for
0.35 second or longer, the windshield wiper relay
(the wiper relay output time varies depending on the
conditions. For details, see the table.) is turned ON,
and the windshield wiper operates at high speed.
The windshield wiper is turned OFF with 3 seconds
delay after the windshield washer switch is turned
OFF.
Even when the windshield washer switch is turned
ON while the windshield wiper is operating intermit-
tently, the intermittent action starts again after the
linked operation is finished.

If the ignition switch is turned to ACC position while
the windshield washer switch is ON, the windshield
washer relay turns ON, but the windshield wiper
does not perform the linked operation. When the
windshield washer switch is turned OFF and then
ON, the windshield wiper starts the linked operation.
