Body System (01.00)
Wipers and Washer System (01.16)
The wipers and washers system consists of the following
components:
• Wipers and washers
• Mounting arm and pivot shaft
•Wiper motor
• Reservoir and washer pump
• Headlamp washing system
The wipers have two speed control (low and high) and an
intermittent wipe mode. The wi pers will park automatically
irrespective of their position when the ‘OFF’ position of the
ignition or control switch is selected.
Within the wiper and washer sy stem the following features
can be attained:
• Adjustable interval intermittent wiping
The intermittent wiping has six speed settings, 3, 6, 9,
12, 15, 18 seconds.
• Programmable wash and wipe sequences The programmable wash and wipe sequence is driver
controlled. With a depression of the wash/wipe switch
between 40 milliseconds and 1.2 seconds the wash
pump will be activated for a duration of 1.2 seconds.
When the wash/wipe switch is depressed for longer than
1.2 seconds the wash pump will be activated for the
duration of switch depression
, a 10 second duration is
the maximum available.
• Vertical wiper park routine to aid servicing the wiper blades.
Hold buttons 8 and 9 (centre console) on continuously
for 500ms within 3 seconds of switching the ignition
‘ON’. Once ignition is ‘ON’ the wipers will move to the
most vertical position. To cancel simply switch ‘OFF’
ignition or switch wiper switch from ‘OFF’ position.
The wiping system is automatically activated with the
depression of the wash switch.
Headlamp Washing
Headlight washers will operate automatically on operation
of the windscreen washers. After one operation of the
headlamp washers they will not operate for 16 minutes, after which they will be available on the next operation of the
windscreen washers.
Headlamp washing is only available when the headlamps
are switched on.Wipers must be in ‘OFF’ pos
ition before continuing with
procedure.
