WINDSHIELD WIPERS
E173262
Rotate the end of the control away from you
to increase the speed of the wipers. Rotate
toward you to decrease the speed of the
wipers.
Note: Fully defrost the windshield before
switching on the windshield wipers.
Note: Make sure you switch off the windshield
wipers before entering a car wash.
Note: Clean the windshield and wiper blades
if they begin to leave streaks or smears. If that
does not resolve the issue, install new wiper
blades.
Note: Do not operate the wipers on a dry
windshield. This may scratch the glass,
damage the wiper blades or cause the wiper
motor to burn out. Always use the windshield
washers before wiping a dry windshield.
AUTOWIPERS
E173262
Adjust the rotary control to increase or
decrease the sensitivity of the rain sensor. On
the lowest sensitivity setting, the wipers turn
on when there is a large amount of moisture
on the windshield. On the highest sensitivity
setting, the wipers turn on when there is a
small amount of moisture on the windshield.
Autowipers uses a rain sensor, located near
the interior mirror. The rain sensor monitors
the amount of moisture on the windshield. It
turns on the wipers and adjusts the wiper
speed by the amount of moisture that the
sensor detects on the windshield. You can
turn this feature on and off in the information
display. See General Information (page
89).
Keep the outside of the windshield clean. The
rain sensor is very sensitive. If the area around
the mirror is dirty, then the wipers may
operate if dirt, mist or insects hit the
windshield.
Note: Fully defrost the windshield before you
switch on the windshield wipers.
Note: Make sure you switch off the windshield
wipers before entering a car wash.
Note: Clean the windshield and wiper blades
if they begin to leave streaks or smears. If that
does not resolve the issue, install new wiper
blades.
Note: If you switch autolamps on in
conjunction with autowipers, your low beam
headlamps will turn on automatically when
the rain sensor turns on the windshield wipers
continuously.
