Windshield wipers
Switching windshiel
dwipers on and off Example illustration coupé
X
Make sure the key is in starter switch
position 1.
X Switching on: Turn the wiper switch to
position 0005or0006, depending on the
intensity of the rain.
! Do not operate the windshield wipers
when the windshield is dry. Dust that
accumulates on a windshield might
scratch the glass and/or damage the
wiper blades when wiping occurs on a dry
windshield. If it is necessary to operate
the windshield wipers in dry weather
conditions, always operate the
windshield wipers with windshield
washer fluid.
! If anything blocks the windshield
wipers (leaves, snow, etc.), switch them
off immediately.
For safety reasons, stop the vehicle in a
safe location and
R -
remove the key from the starter
switch
- engage the parking brake
before attempting to remove any
blockage.
R Remove blockage.
R Turn the windshield wipers on again.
X Switching off: Turn the wiper switch to
position 0008. Intermittent wiping
Only switch on intermittent wiping under
wet weather conditions or in the presence
of precipitation.
Vehicle swith rain-ligh tsensor*: When you
select intermittent wiping, the sensor is
activated. The sensor automatically sets a
suitablew iping interval depending on the
wetness of the sensor surface.
! Vehicles with rain-light sensor*:
Do not leave windshield wipers in
intermittent setting when the vehicle is
taken to an automatic car wash or during
windshield cleaning. Windshield wipers
will operate in the presence of water
sprayed on the windshield, and
windshield wipers may be damaged as a
result.
! Vehicles with rain-light sensor*:
If you have set intermittent wiping, dirt
on the surface of the sensor or optical
effects may cause the windshield wipers
to wipe in an undesired fashion. This
could then damage the windshield wiper
blades or scratch the windshield. You
should therefore switch off the
windshield wipers when weather
conditions are dry.
X Make sure the key is in starter switch
position 1.
X Activating intermittent wiping: Turn the
wiper switch to position 0004.
After the initial wipe, pauses between
wipes are automatically controlled
depending on the vehicle speed and by the
rain-light sensor*.
X Deactivating intermittent wiping: Turn
the wiper switch to position 0008. Windshield wipers
