Mist
Use this feature when weather
conditions make occasional usage of the
wipers necessary. Push the stalk upward
to the MIST position and release for a
single wiping cycle. This function is useful
to remove small deposits of dust from
the windshield or morning dew.
Note: This function does not activate the
windshield washer. To spray windshield
washer fluid onto the windshield, the
washing function must be used.
Warning!
Sudden loss of visibility through the
windshield could lead to a collision. You
might not see other vehicles or other
obstacles. To avoid sudden icing of the
windshield during freezing weather, warm
the windshield with the defroster before and
during windshield washer use.
Rain Sensor
The Rain Sensor is located behind the
interior rear view mirror. This feature
senses moisture on the windshield and
automatically activates the wipers for
the driver.
The feature is especially useful for road
splash or over spray from the windshield
washers of the vehicle ahead. Rotate the
end of the multifunction lever to one of
four settings to activate this feature.
The sensor has an adjustment range that
varies progressively from wiper still (no
stroke) when the windshield is dry, to
wiper at continuous speed (fast
operation) with intense rain.
Activation
Rotating the wiper switch to position
or activates the rain sensor.
The activation of the rain sensor system
is done by tapping the wiper stalk
upwards while the switch is in the
or
position.
The variation in sensitivity during rain
sensor operation is also signaled by a
stroke of the wiper (command acquired
and implemented). This stroke is also
executed with the windshield dry.
If the windshield washer is used with the
rain sensor activated, the normal washing
cycle is performed, after which the rain
sensor resumes its normal automatic
operation.
Note: Keep the glass in the sensor area
clean.
Deactivation
Use the wiper switch or cycle the ignition
to STOP.
In the event of malfunction of the rain
sensor while it is active, the windshield
wiper operates intermittently at a speed
consistent with the sensitivity setting of
the rain sensor, whether or not there is
rain on the glass for as long as the sensor
failure is indicated on the display.
The sensor continues to operate and it is
possible to set the windshield wiper to
continuous mode
or .The failure
indication remains on for as long as the
sensor is active.
The rain sensor is able to recognize and
automatically adjust itself in the
presence of the following conditions:
Presence of dirt on the controlled
surface (e.g. salt, dirt, etc.).
Presence of streaks of water caused
by the worn window wiper blades.
Difference between day and night.
