9).
If the intermittent wipe is switched on, the intervals are also controlled depending on speed. The rain sensor* automatically regulates
the break between the individual wiper
strokes depending on the intensity of the rain. The rear window will be wiped again if the front window wipers are on when reverse gear is selected. The windscreen washer nozzles are heated* when the ignition is switched on.Top up with wash liquid
⇒page 214.
Winter position If the windscreen wipers are in rest positi
on, they cannot be folded out from the wind-
screen. For this reason we recommend adjusting the windscreen wipers in winter so that they can be folded out from the windscreen easily. You can set this rest position as follows:•
Switch on the windscreen wipers.
•
Switch off the ignition. The windscreen wipers remain in the position in which they
were when switching off the ignition. You can also use the service position
⇒page 65 as a winter position.
WARNING
•
Properly maintained wind
screen wiper blades are essential for clear visi-
bility and safe driving
⇒page 65.
•
Do not use the windscreen washer sy
stem at low temperatures, without
heating the windscreen beforehand.
Otherwise the window cleaner could
freeze on the windscreen and re
strict the view to the front.
•
The rain sensor only operates as a support. The driver is not released from
the responsibility to set the function of the windscreen wipers manually depending on the visibility conditions.
Caution
In frosty weather, please firs
t of all check whether the windscreen wiper blades are not
frozen to the windscreen before switching them on. Switching on windscreen wipers when the blades are frozen to the windscreen may result in damage both to the blades and the motor of the windscreen wipers!
Note
•
If the slower or the faster wiper setting is switched on
⇒page 63, fig. 57
and
the vehicle speed decreases to below 4 km/h, the lower wiper step is switched on automatically. At a speed increase of more
than 8 km/h the previous wiper setting is
established again.•
If there is an obstacle on the windscre
en, the wiper will try to push away the
obstacle. If the obstacle continues to block
the wiper, the wiper stops after 5 cycles, in
order to avoid a damage to the wiper. Re
move the obstacle and and switch on the
wiper again.Automatic rear window wiper*If the windshield wiper lever is in the posi
tion or , the rear window wiper carries
out a wiping process every 30 seconds or
10 seconds at a speed above 5 km/h.
When the rain sensor* is active (the lever
is in the position ) the function is only
active if the front window wipers continue
to operate (no break between each wiping
process). Activation/deactivation The function of the automatic rear window wiper is activated/deactivated in the infor- mation display* in the menu:„
Setup„

Note
The function of the automatic rear window
wiper is only valid for vehicles which are
equipped with the information display*. The function is activated in the factory.

a contact switch for the bonnet, the windshield wiper and wash
system operates also when
the bonnet is opened.
