Operating fault
If an automatic wiping malfunction occurs, the wipers will operate in intermittent mode. Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer. To retain the effectiveness of the "flat-blade" wiper blades, it is advisable to: - handle them with care, - clean them regularly using soapy water, - not use them to hold a sheet of cardboard against the windscreen, - replace them at the first signs of wear.
Do not cover the rain sensor, linked with the brightness sensor and located in the centre of the windscreen behind the rear view mirror. Switch off the automatic wiping when using an automatic car wash. In winter, it is advisable to wait until the
windscreen is completely clear of ice before activating the automatic wiping.
This position allows the wiper blades to be lifted for winter parking, cleaning or replacement without damaging the bonnet. In the minute following switching off of the ignition, any action on the wiper stalk positions the wipers ver tically. To park the wipers after this has been done,
switch on the ignition and operate the wiper stalk.
