Instruments and controls
Right-hand stalk switch
Windscreen wipers
The windscreen wipers are turned
off when the stalk switch is in posi-
tion 0.
If the stalk switch is moved
upwards, the wipers swipe one
stoke at a time for as long as the stalk switch
is held up.
Intermittent wiping
You can adjust and set a suitable
speed for intermittent wiping.
Rotate the ring (1) clockwise to increase
wiper stroke frequency. Rotate the ring anti-
clockwise to decrease wiper stroke fre-
quency.
The wipers sweep at normal speed.
The wipers sweep at high speed.
Rain sensor (option)
The rain sensor automatically activates the
windscreen wipers based on how much
water it detects on the windscreen. The sen-
sitivity of the rain sensor can be adjusted
using the ring (1).
– Turn the ring clockwise to increase sensi-
tivity or anticlockwise to decrease sensi-
tivity, (there is an extra swipe when the
ring is turned clockwise).
On/Off
When activating the rain sensor, the ignition
key must be in position I or II and the wind-
screen wiper stalk switch must be in
position 0.
To activate the rain sensor:
– press the button (2). An LED in the
button comes on to indicate that the rain
sensor is active.
To turn the rain sensor off, either:
– press the button (2) or
– press the stalk switch downward to
another wiper programme. If the stalk
switch is raised, the rain sensor will
remain active, the wipers make an extra
sweep and then return to rain sensor
mode when the stalk switch is released
back to position 0.
The rain sensor is automatically deactivated
when the key is removed from the ignition
switch or five minutes after the ignition is
switched off.
Windscreen washer
Pull the lever towards the steering wheel to
activate the windscreen washer.
Headlamp washer
(option on certain markets)

IMPORTANT!
Use plenty of washer fluid when the wip-
ers are cleaning the windscreen. The
windscreen must be wet when the wind-
screen wipers are operating.
IMPORTANT!
In an automatic car wash:
Turn off the rain sensor by pressing
button (2) while the ignition key is in
position I or II. Otherwise, the windscreen
wipers may start and be damaged.
