observe surrounding traffic conditions and
could cause an accident.

Intermittent wiping with rain sensor: due
to optical influences and the windshield
becoming dirty in dry weather conditions,
the windshield wipers may be activated
inadvertently. This could then damage the
windshield wiper blades or scratch the
windshield.
For this reason, you should always switch
off the windshield wipers in dry weather.
In theÄ orÅ position, the appropriate
wiping frequency is set automatically
according to the intensity of the rain. In
theÅ position, the rain sensor is more
sensitive than in theÄ position, causing
the windshield wiper to wipe more frequently.
Intermittent wiping is interrupted when you
stop the vehicle and open a front door. This
