OPERATION

WindowWashing and Heating Systems

If automatic wipers operate more quickly or slowly than you expect in case of rain, select the suitable speed yourself using the lever to prevent being distracted and to see the road better. Bugs crashing on the area where the rain sensor is placed on the windscreen may cause unexpected operation of the wipers. We recommend you to keep the area on around the sensor on the windshield clean. Water splashing on the windshield when the road is wet, and icing, snow or fog at winter may cause erratic or unexpected operation of automatic wipers or cause the automatic wipers to scatter the dirt and deteriorate the vision. You may perform the following to keep the windshield clean. • You may switch to normal or high speed wiping. • You may turn the automatic wiper feature off.
