Automatic Windscreen Wipers; Reverse Gear; Rear Wiper - CITROEN C4 Spacetourer Handbook

Automatic windscreen
wipers
The windscreen wipers operate automatically
once rain is detected (sensor behind the
rear view mirror), adapting their speed to the
intensity of the rain without any action on the
part of the driver.
Switching on
Give a short downwards push to the
control stalk.
A wiping cycle confirms that the
instruction has been accepted.
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and a message is
displayed.
Switching off
Give the control stalk another brief
push downwards or place the control
stalk in another position (Int, 1 or 2).
This indicator lamp goes off in the instrument
panel and a message is displayed.
The automatic rain sensitive windscreen
wipers must be reactivated by pushing the
control stalk downwards, if the ignition has
been off for more than one minute.
Operating fault
If a fault occurs with the automatic rain
sensitive wipers, the wipers will operate in
intermittent mode.
Have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop.
Do not cover the rain sensor, combined
with the sunshine sensor and located at
the top centre of the windscreen, behind
the rear view mirror.
Switch off the automatic rain sensitive
wipers when using an automatic car wash.
In winter, it is advisable to wait until
the windscreen is completely clear of
ice before activating the automatic rain
sensitive wipers.
