The first position (upper) corresponds to
the lowest sensitivity of the sensor.
The last position (lower) corresponds to
the highest sensitivity of the sensor.
The higher the sensitivity, the faster the
system reacts and increases the wiping
frequency.
A rotation of the ring from a higher
position to a lower position triggers a
confirmation wiping.

for more than 1 minute with the wiper
control stalk in the AUTO position, when
the ignition is switched on again:
the system works, depending on the
volume of rain detected, as soon as the
vehicle exceeds 10 km/h (6 mph), if the
outside temperature is below +3
°
C.
the system works immediately,
depending on the volume of rain
detected, if the outside temperature is
above +3

Malfunction
If a fault occurs with the automatic
wipers, the wipers operate in intermittent
mode. Have it checked by a Jeep
Dealership.
WARNING
48) Make sure the device is turned off
whenever the windscreen glass must be
cleaned.
IMPORTANT
11) Before operating the wipers in wintry
conditions, clear any snow, ice or frost
from the windscreen and around the wiper
arms and blades.
12)
Do not operate the wipers on a dry
windscreen. In extremely hot or cold
weather, check that the wiper blades
are not stuck to the windscreen before
operating the wipers.
13)
Never use the screen wiper to
remove layers of snow or ice from the
windscreen glass. In such conditions, the
windscreen wiper may be subjected to
excessive stress and the motor cut-out
switch, which prevents operation for a
few seconds, may intervene. If operation
is not subsequently restored, even after
restarting the engine, contact a Jeep
Dealership.
14) Do not operate the screen wiper with
the blades lifted from the windscreen
glass.
