time. After that the wiping interval and wiping speed
(normal and rapid), depend on wetness of the
windshield and are controlled automatically.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the windshield
caused by e. g. ice, steam, fog or water could lead
to an accident. You might not see other vehicles or
other obstacles. To avoid sudden icing of the
windshield during freezing weather, warm the
windshield with the defroster or with the wind-
shield heater (optional) before and during wind-
shield washer use.Follow the recommended settings for de-fogging
and de-icing the front windows given in Section 4.
CAUTION!
Do not leave windshield wipers in intermittent
setting when vehicle is taken to an automatic car
wash or during windshield cleaning and/or de-
icing. Wipers will operate if the windshield gets
wet, and wipers may be damaged as a result.
