8. Perform headlight auto light setting..
CAUTION:
If the rain sensor is replaced, the auto light system may not operate normally because the auto light sensitivity setting is initialized. If the rain sensor is replaced, perform the auto light sensitivity setting.
If the auto light sensitivity setting before replacing the rain sensor was "Medium", and the following sensitivity setting procedure is not performed, the sensor will be unable to detect the illumination level correctly and the auto light system will not operate normally. If the rain sensor is replaced, perform the following sensitivity setting procedure.
Except for "Medium" sensitivity setting.
Re-setting to "Medium".
Rain Sensor Installation Note
CAUTION:
If the rate at which the rain sensor reflects or transmits infrared light between the rain sensor and the windshield, or through the protective sheet is changed, the rain sensor will determine that there is a malfunction in the rain detection function and stop auto wiper system control.
