Automatic windscreen wiping
The windscreen wipers operate auto-
matically, without any action on the part
of the driver, if rain is detected (sensor
behind the interior mirror), adapting their
speed to the intensity of the rainfall.
Activation

by pushing lever
A to the "AUTO" posi-
tion.
It is accompanied by a message on the
multifunction display. In the minute following switching off of
the ignition, any action on the stalk po-
sitions the wipers in the centre of the
windscreen.
This action enables you to position the
wiper blades for winter parking, cleaning
or replacement.
To park the wipers after this has been
done, switch on the ignition and operate
the stalk.
Do not cover the rain sensor, cou-
pled with the brightness sensor and
located in the centre of the wind-
screen behind the interior mirror.
Switch off the automatic wip-
ing when using an automatic car
wash.
In winter, it is advisable to wait until
the windscreen is completely clear
of ice before activating the auto-
matic wiping. The automatic wiping must be re-
activated if the ignition has been off
for more than one minute, by push-
ing lever
A downwards.
Switching off
This is controlled manually by the driver
by moving lever A upwards and return-
ing it to position "0" .
It is accompanied by a message on the
multifunction display. Operating fault

curs, the wipers will operate in intermit-
tent mode.
