When this position is selected, the
system detects water on the wind-
screen and triggers the wipers at a
suitable wiping speed. It is possi-
ble to change the triggering thresh-
old and the time sweeps by turning

When activating automatic wiping
or when increasing sensitivity, one
sweep of the blades is performed.
note:
– the rain sensor is only intended as a
driving aid. In the event of reduced
visibility, the driver should manually
activate the wipers. In foggy weather
or during snowfalls, wiping is not au-
tomatically triggered and remains
under the driver's control;
– in the event of temperatures below
zero, automatic wiping is not acti-
vated when the vehicle is started. It
is automatically activated as soon as
the vehicle exceeds a certain speed
(approximately 5 mph (8 km/h));
– do not activate automatic wiping in
dry weather;
– fully de-ice the windscreen before
activating automatic wiping.
