It's probably equipped with a rain sensor. With them in the down, but not all the way down position and the car running try spraying water on the windshield. The sensor on the back of the inside rear view mirror will detect it and they will wipe automatically. To adjust the sensitivity turn the washer control. It's not a variable speed, but rather a sensitivity... how many drops before it wipes.
