Special position of the
windscreen wipers
Automatic rain sensitive
windscreen wipers

cally, without any action on the part of the
driver, if rain is detected (sensor behind
the rear view mirror), adapting their speed
to the intensity of the rainfall.

This is controlled manually by the driver
by pushing the stalk downwards to the
"AUTO" position.
It is accompanied by a message on the
multifunction screen.

windscreen wiper blades.

of the blades. It can also be useful, in
winter, to detach the blades from the
windscreen.
In the moment following switching off
of the ignition, any action on the stalk
positions the wipers vertically on the
windscreen.
To park the wipers after this has been
done, switch on the ignition and operate
the stalk.
Do not cover the rain sensor,
linked with the sunshine sen-
sor and located in the centre
of the windscreen behind the rear
view mirror.

tive wipers when using an automatic
car wash.
In winter, to avoid damaging the wip-
er blades, it is advisable to wait until
the windscreen is completely clear of
ice before activating the automatic
rain sensitive wipers.
The automatic rain sensitive
wipers must be reactivated if
the ignition has been off for
more than one minute, by pushing
the stalk downwards.
Switching off
This is controlled manually by the driver
by moving the stalk upwards then re-
turning it to position "0" .
It is accompanied by a message on the
multifunction screen.

If an automatic wiping malfunction
occurs, the wipers will operate in inter-
mittent mode.

ness of the "fl at-blade" wiper

water,

board on the windscreen.
