Vehicles with headlamp cleaning
system*:
If the low-beam headlamps have
been switched on, a high-pressure
water jet also cleans the headlamps. For example, if you have selected
speed
II and stop the vehicle,the wip-
ers wipe at intermittent speed until
you pull away again. The wipe intervals
are longer in intermittent mode.
Vehicles with rain sensor*:
You can use speed
I as the universal
speed. The rain sensor adjusts the
wiping frequency according to how
heavy the rain is. If you stop the vehi-
cle, speeds
III and
II are automatical-
ly switched down to speed
I.
The original speed of the windshield
wipers is resumed when you drive
faster than 5 mph (8 km / h) again.
iWipe with windshield washer fluid even
when it is raining. By doing so you can
prevent smears on the windshield.
