the rain sensor sensitivity.
The increasing of the rain sensor
sensitivity is signalled by a "stroke"
to show that the command has
been acquired.If the windscreen washer is used
with the rain sensor activated,
the normal washing cycle is
performed, after which the rain
sensor resumes its normal
automatic operation.
Deactivation fig. 64

lever is still in position B. To activate
the sensor, move the lever to
position A or C and then back to
position B or turn the ring nut
for adjusting the sensitivity. Rain
sensor activation will be indicated
