automatically in the rain as long as the vehicle
has been moving faster than approx. 4 km/h at
Least once. The higher the sensitivity level for the
rain sensor (i.e. the further switch

A WARNING
- The rain sensor* is only intended to assist
the driver. The driver is still obliged to
man­

ually operate the windscreen wipers as re­
quired depending on visibility.
- Do not use water-repellent coatings on the
windscreen. In bad visibility conditions such
as light
rain,
low sun or when driving at
night these coatings can cause increased
dazzle, which is a serious safety hazard.
Such coatings can aLso cause the wiper
blades to judder.
- Poor visibility can cause accidents. Always
ensure that the wiper blades are in good
condition
