Abstract
Since a MIST position is set to be positioned next to an AUTO position, when a control lever is operated from the AUTO position to the MIST position, the control lever can be so operated through one step without having to pass through another operation mode position, whereby by operating the control lever from the AUTO position to the MIST position to be held operative in the position, the wiper can be put in operation. In addition, by operating the control lever to stay in the AUTO position, the wiper can automatically be put in operation according to the amount of rain.
