time between two strokes is set

two strokes decreases. In position LO
or HI, the windscreen wiper moves
continuously, i.e. without a pause
between two strokes.

This is located behind the interior rear
view mirror fig. 34, in contact with the
windscreen and can measure the
amount of rain and, consequently,
manage the automatic wiping mode of
the windscreen in accordance with the
amount of water on the screen.
The rain sensor will be activated when
the ignition device is turned to MAR. If
no rain is detected, the wiper will not
carry out any strokes. If it is raining, the
windscreen wiper moves according to
the amount of rain measured by the
sensor. The device is able to recognise, and
automatically adjust itself in the
presence of the following conditions:
presence of dirt on the surface (e.g.
salt, dirt, etc.);
presence of streaks of water caused
by the worn window wiper blades;
difference between day and night.
The rain sensor will be deactivated only
when the ignition device is turned to
STOP.
IMPORTANT Keep the glass in the
sensor area clean.
