Intermittent wiping
Vehicles with rain sensor*:

on wetness of windshield.
̈ Turn the combination switch to
position I.
Vehicles with rain sensor*:
After the initial wipe, pauses between
wipes are automatically controlled by the
rain sensor.

Vehicles with rain sensor*:
Do not leave windshield wipers on an intermit-
tent setting when the vehicle is taken to an auto-
matic car wash or during windshield cleaning.
Windshield wipers will operate in the presence of
water sprayed on the windshield, and windshield
wipers may be damaged as a result.
!
Vehicles with rain sensor*:
If you have set intermittent wiping, dirt on the
surface of the rain sensor or optical effects
may cause the windshield wipers to wipe in an
undesired fashion. This could then damage
the windshield wiper blades or scratch the
windshield. You should therefore switch off
the windshield wipers when weather conditions
are dry.
i
Intermittent wiping is interrupted when the
vehicle is at a standstill and a door is opened.
This protects persons getting into or out of the
vehicle from being sprayed.
Intermittent wiping will be continued when all
doors are closed and
ț the clutch pedal is depressed (vehicles with
manual transmission)
or
ț the gear selector lever is in position D or R
(vehicles with automatic transmission*)
or
ț the wiper setting is changed using the
combination switch
