Wipers and washers
RAIN SENSOR/SPEED SENSITIVE
WIPER CONTROL
SPEED SENSITIVE WIPERS
If vehicle speed drops below 6km/h (3.7mph)
with the wipers operating in positions (2) or
Intermittent operation of the wipers is
controlled initially by either vehicle speed or a
rain sensor located at the upper edge of the
windscreen. Both methods of control will clear
the screens adequately. Vehicle speed control
is set by the user and control via a rain sensor
is automatic.
(3), the wipers will switch to the next lowest
speed. When vehicle speed increases to over
6km/h (3.7mph), the original wiper speed
setting is restored automatically.
DRIP WIPE
This function can be enabled/disabled
by your Dealer/Authorised Repairer.
If the drip wipe function is configured, the
wipers will operate four seconds after a
wash/wipe cycle has finished, to clear any
remaining drips from the windscreen.
RAIN SENSOR
This function can be enabled/disabled
by your Dealer/Authorised Repairer.
Ensure that the wipers are switched off
before entering a car wash. If the rain
sensitive wipers operate during the car
washing process, damage may occur to
the wiper mechanism.
WINTER PARK POSITION
The wipers can be set to park in a higher
position than normal. This allows the blades to
be lifted from the screen to prevent freezing.
The ‘Wipers winter park’ option can be selected
from the settings menu. See 56, VEHICLE
INFORMATION AND SETTINGS MENU.
The rain sensor is able to detect the presence
and amount of rain/dirt/snow on the
windscreen and automatically activates the
windscreen wipers accordingly. Static droplets
may not be detected on initial start-up, use a
single wipe to clear the screen.
HEADLAMP WASHERS
To activate the rain sensitivity wipers, move the
wiper stalk to the rain sensor position (4). A
single wipe will be actioned.
The optional headlamp power wash operates
automatically with the windscreen wash and
will operate only If the headlamps are switched
on and there is sufficient washer fluid in the
reservoir.
Adjust the rain sensitivity collar (1) as required.
Increasing sensitivity while position (4) is
selected will action a single wipe.
Headlamp wash operates every fourth
operation of the screen washers, provided the
headlamps are still switched on and
approximately ten minutes have elapsed since
the last headlamp wash.
If a front door is opened while the wipers are
operating, the wipers will be disabled.
Operation will restart when the doors are
closed again.
Switching the headlamps or ignition off and
back on again, will reset the cycle.
