Switching on windshield wipers
!
Do not leave windshield wipers in inter-
mittent setting when vehicle is taken to
an automatic car wash or during wind-
shield cleaning. Wipers will operate in
the presence of water sprayed on the
windshield, and wipers may be dam-
aged as a result.
̈
Turn the combination switch to the de-
sired position depending on the inten-
sity of the rain.
The combination switch is located on the
left of the steering column.

III Fast wiper speed
The combination switch should not be
left in intermittent setting as the wipers
will wipe the windshield once every
time the engine is started. Dust that ac-
cumulates on the windshield might
scratch the glass and/or damage the
wiper blades when wiping occurs on a
dry windshield.

The intermittent wiping interval is de-
pendent on the wetness of the wind-
shield. After the initial wipe, pauses
between wipes are controlled by the
rain sensor.
