Rain sensor
The rain sensor is mounted on the
windscreen, directly in front of the
inside mirror.
Activating the rain sensor:
>
From ignition key position 1, shift into
lever setting 1. In any event, the wip-
ers will now sweep across the wind-
screen once.
You can leave the lever in setting 1 con-
tinuously, then all you need to do is to
activate the rain sensor from ignition
key position 1.
To do this,
>
turn knurled wheel 5 briefly or
>
clean windscreen, see picture on
page 67, setting 1.
To adjust the sensitivity of the rain sen-
sor: turn knurled wheel 5.
Deactivating the rain sensor: move the
lever to the 0 position.
Deactivate the rain sensor in an
automatic car wash, otherwise the
car's wipers may operate and be dam-
aged.

lights*
Cleaning the windscreen and
headlights*
Only operate the washers and
cleaning equipment if certain that
the fluid will not freeze to the wind-
screen and interfere with the view
ahead. A suitable additive should there-
fore be used, see page 124.
Do not run the washer if the reservoir is
empty, as this will damage the washer
pump.
<
Fluid from the washer tank is sprayed
on to the windscreen and the wipers
are operated for a short time.
