WIPER OPERATION
Do not operate the wipers on a dry
screen.
In freezing or hot conditions, make sure
the wipers have not stuck to the glass.
Use the winter park position to lift the
wiper blades away from the screen. See
55, WINTER PARK POSITION.
Remove any snow, ice or frost from the
windscreen, around the wiper arms and
blades and the windscreen scuttle,
before operating the wipers.
Vehicles with a rain sensor:
1. Automatic rain sensing mode: The front
wipers will respond and adapt
automatically to the ambient rain
conditions, selecting the appropriate wiper
frequency for the prevailing conditions.
The sensitivity of the system can be
adjusted by rotating the collar (2).
Make sure the wipers are switched
off before entering a car wash. If the
automatic rain sensing system
operates during the car washing
process, damage may occur to the
wiper mechanism.
2. Rotate the collar to adjust the sensitivity of
the automatic rain sensing mode when
position (1) is selected. The higher the
sensitivity position the more responsive
the system will become.
When automatic rain sensing mode is
selected, or when sensitivity is increased,
the system will perform a single wipe.
3. Low speed continuous wipe.
4. High speed continuous wipe.
5. Single wipe of windscreen, or hold down
for further continuous wipes.
6. Windscreen wash/wipe: Pull and release to
operate the front washers and wipers. The
wipers will operate for 2 further wipes after
the stalk is released. After a few seconds, a
drip wipe will clear any residual washer
fluid from the windscreen. If more washer
fluid is required, pull and hold the stalk
position.
Note: The front wipers will not operate
while the bonnet is open.
7. INT: Rear wiper, intermittent operation.
Wiper frequency will increase with vehicle
speed.
8. ON: Rear wiper, continuous operation.
