WARNINGS
Replace the wiper blades as soon
as they begin to leave bands of
water and smears or when they do
not completely remove water from the
windscreen. If the blades are not
replaced, the rain sensor will continue to
detect water on the windscreen. This will
result in the wipers continuing to operate
although the majority of the windscreen
is dry.
In icy conditions, make sure that the
windscreen has been fully defrosted
before selecting autowipers.
Switch off the autowipers before
entering a car wash.
Note: The autowipers feature is intended
for use during wet weather conditions
only. It should not be selected in dry
weather conditions as the system is very
sensitive to objects such as dirt, mist or
flies hitting the windscreen near the rain
sensor. This may cause the wipers to
wipe even though the screen is mostly
dry.
Note: The autowipers function should
not be selected when it is snowing or
foggy, or when the roads have been
salted. In these weather conditions, select
position A, C or D, if necessary.
