Safety First Operating instructions Practical tips Technical Data
• Always note the corresponding warnings on ⇒ page 191.
Caution
In icy conditions, always check that the wiper blades are not frozen to the
glass before using the wipers for the first time. If you switch on the wipers
when the wiper blades are frozen to the windscreen, you could damage both
the wiper blades and the wiper motor.
Note
• The windscreen wipers will only work when the ignition is switched on.
• The heat output of the heated jets* is controlled automatically when the
ignition is switched on, depending upon the outside temperature.
• In certain versions of vehicles with alarms, the windscreen wiper will only
work when the ignition is on and the bonnet closed.
• When the intermittent wipe function is on, the intervals are directly
proportional to the speed. This way, the higher the vehicle speed the shorter
the intervals.
Rain sensor*
The rain sensor controls the frequency of the windscreen
wiper intervals, depending on the amount of rain.
Switching on the rain sensor
– Move the windscreen wiper lever into position ⇒ fig. 60.
– Move the control to the left or right to set the sensitivity of the
rain sensor. Control to the right: highly sensitive. Control to the
left: less sensitive.
The rain sensor is part of the interval wipe function. You will have to switch
the rain sensor back on if you switch off the ignition. This is done by switching
the wiper intermittent function off and back on.
