Strange is you seem to fail solving this simplest matter. Sorry, just couldn't help noticing.

You don't seem to share much but your embarrassment. That's embarrassing. You've got the picture you requested but yours appears missing still.

If you have the basic wiper stalk (missing the "auto" icon pictured, at least), why did you expect it to shine (sing and dance - optionally ) at your will? What makes you think you have the rain sensor? Do you have the "auto headlight activation" function (that is, does your lights switch look exactly as pictured, with two "headlights on" modes - auto and manual)? If not, there's no rain sensor (these two auto functions come together only, "in a sweet harmony").

What you might have instead is the "high-beam assistant function": does your lights stalk have a single or double button flank? The latter is the high-beam assistance available. This might come with the auto functions as well, though.

You could check your car's factory (or is it pre-owned, modified?) options with your VIN, say, here, but I would suggest you should simply find a slot in your tight schedule for visiting a dealer to let them check and explain their findings. This should be reliable.
