Rain Sensing Wipers
This feature detects moisture on the
windshield through an inside rearview
mirror integrated sensor.
The rain sensor adapts the frequency
of the windshield wiper strokes (in the
intermittent operation mode) to the
intensity of the rain.
All the other functions controlled by
the right-hand multifunction lever
(windshield wipers off, in continuous
slow and fast operation mode and in
temporary fast operation mode)
remain the same.
The rain sensor is activated
automatically by moving the
right-hand multifunction lever to
"AUTO" position. The sensor has a
setting range that varies progressively:
from the windshield wiper stationary
position - when the windshield is dry -
to the windshield wiper second speed
- in conditions of pouring rain.To regulate the frequency of
intermittent operation, with the
right-hand multifunction lever in
"AUTO" position, turn the end section
of the lever.
Rotating the end section clockwise,
intermittent operation varies from fast
intermittent wipe (max.) to slow
intermittent wipe (min).
If the engine is turned off during
automatic windshield wiper
operation, with the right-hand
multifunction lever in "AUTO"
position, to reactivate the function the
next time the engine is started, the
lever must be moved to "OFF" (stop
position) then back to "AUTO"
position.CAUTION!
• The rain sensing feature may not
function properly by ice or dried salt
water on the windshield.
• Use on the windshield of RainX
®or
products containing wax or silicone
may reduce rain sensor performance.
Rain Sensor Failure
When the rain sensor is activated, in
the event that it is malfunctioning, the
windshield wiper will be switched on
in intermittent operation mode and
the sensing range will be set by the
user, regardless of whether or not
there is rain on the windshield.
The
symbol appears on the
instrument cluster display.
In this case, we recommend that you
cut-out the rain sensor and turn on
the wiper, if necessary, in continuous
mode. Contact theAuthorized
Maserati Dealeras soon as possible.
