101Instruments and controls
Back-Up
The back-up lights come on automatically
when reverse gear is engaged or selected
with the ignition switched on.
Button for accessory 3
This button can be used for accessories,
such as extra lights.
Priority of audible information
If two or more functions are active simulta-
neously, the most important function at that
time will be prioritized.
If, for example, the direction indicators are
active when you engage reverse, the park-
ing assistance (if fitted) will be heard instead
of the direction indicators. When reverse is
disengaged, the direction indicators will be
heard, if they are still active.
Wipers and washers
Windshield wipers
Position 1 is a spring-loaded position that
will produce a single sweep of the wipers.
In position 2 you can set the delay period for
intermittent wiping using the thumbwheel on
the stalk switch. There are 5 delay periods
from which to choose, ranging from 2 to
15 seconds.
The wipers always return to their home posi-
tion when the ignition is turned off.
To leave the wipers positioned vertically on
the windshield, proceed as follows:
1 Switch off the engine and remove the
remote control.
2 Activate the wipers within the next
16 seconds by pressing the stalk switch
down.
When the ignition is next switched on the
wipers will return to their home position.
Changing wipers blades, see page 217.
