Replace the wiper blades assoon as they begin to leavebands of water and smears or whenthey do not completely remove waterfrom the windscreen. If the bladesare not replaced, the rain sensor willcontinue to detect water on thewindscreen. This will result in thewipers continuing to operatealthough the majority of thewindscreen is dry.
Note: The autowipers feature isintended for use during wet weatherconditions only and is very sensitiveto anything which touches thewindscreen near to the rain sensor.Objects such as dirt, mist or flieshitting the windscreen in this locationmay cause the wipers to wipe eventhough the windscreen is mostly dry.
Note: The autowipers feature shouldnot be selected when it is snowing,foggy or when the roads have beensalted. In these weather conditions,select an alternative position ifnecessary.
