Rain sensor*
G029053
The rain sensor automatically activates the
windscreen wipers based on how much water
it detects on the windscreen. The sensitivity of
the rain sensor can be adjusted using the
thumbwheel (C), see page 65.
Turn the thumbwheel upwards for higher sen-
sitivity and downwards for lower sensitivity, (an
extra sweep is made when the thumbwheel is
turned upwards).
On/Off
When activating the rain sensor, the remote
control key must be in position
I or II and the
windscreen wiper stalk switch must be in posi-
tion
0 (not activated).
Activating the rain sensor:
Press the button (B), see page 65. A display
symbol shows that the rain sensor is
active.
To turn the rain sensor off, either:
1. Press button (B)
2. Press the stalk switch downward to
another wiper program. If the stalk switch
is raised, the rain sensor will remain active,
the wipers make an extra sweep and then
return to rain sensor mode when the stalk
is released to position
0 (not activated), see
page 65.
The rain sensor is automatically deactivated
when the remote control key is removed from
the ignition switch or five minutes after the igni-
tion is switched off.
IMPORTANT
At an automatic car wash: Deactivate the
rain sensor by pressing the button (B) while
the remote control key is in position
I or II .
Otherwise, the windscreen wipers could
start swiping and become damaged.
Thumbwheel
Use the thumbwheel to adjust the frequency of
wiper sweeps when intermittent wiping is
selected, or the sensitivity to rain when the rain
sensor is selected.
