Vehicle fitted with front
windscreen wiper rain sensor
The rain sensor is located on the winds-
creen, in front of the interior rear-view
mirror.
A single sweep
A short push will trigger one sweep
of the wipers.
B stop
When activating automatic wiping
or when increasing sensitivity, one
sweep of the blades is performed.
Note:
– the rain sensor is only intended
as a driving aid. In the event of re-
duced visibility, the driver should
manually activate the wipers. In
foggy weather or during snow-
falls, wiping is not automatically
triggered and remains under the
driver’s control;
– in the event of temperatures
below zero, automatic wiping is
not activated when the vehicle
is started. It is automatically acti-
vated as soon as the vehicle ex-
ceeds a certain speed (5 mph or
8 km/h).
– do not activate automatic wiping
in dry weather. Fully de-ice the
windscreen before activating au-
tomatic wiping.

C automatic wiper function
When this position is selected,
the system detects water on the
windscreen and triggers the wipers
at a suitable wiping speed. It is
possible to change the triggering
threshold and the time sweeps by
turning ring 2 :
– F : minimum sensitivity
– G : maximum sensitivity
The higher the sensitivity, the quic-
ker the wipers will react and the
faster the wipe.
