mirror controls AUDI TT ROADSTER 2014 Owners Manual

_& WARNING
- Curved (i. e. convex) mirror surfaces in­
crease your field of view. Remember that
vehicles or other objects will appear
smaller and farther away than when seen
in a flat mirror.
If you use this mirror to
estimate distances of following vehicles
when changing lanes, you could estimate
incorrectly and cause an accident.
CD Note
- If the mirror housing is moved uninten­
tionally (for example, while parking your
vehicle), then you must first fold the mir­ ror electrically. Do not readjust the mir­
ror housing manually. You could damage
the motor which controls the mirror .
- If you wash the vehicle in an automatic
car wash, you must fold the exterior mir­
rors in to reduce the risk of damage to
the mirrors . Never fold power folding ex­
terior mirrors* by hand. Only fold them in and out using the power controls .
@ Tips
If there should be a malfunction in the
electrical system, you can still adjust the
exterior mirrors by pressing the edge of
the mirror .

.. Release the lever . The washer stops and the
w ipers keep going for about four seconds.
Turning off the wipers
.. Move the lever back to position @ .
The w indshield w ipers and washer only work
when the ignition is turned on . If you sw itch
off the igni tion with the windshie ld w iper lev­
er st ill in the inte rva l wipe position and then
come back a whi le later and drive off, the ra in
sensor will reactivate itself after the vehicle speed has exceeded 4 mph (6 km/h) .
T he rai n sensor* is only activated with the
wiper lever set to position
(D . When it starts
to rain, the rain senso r will a utomat ically acti­
vate the intermittent wiping mode .
T o reduce the sensi tivity of the sensor, move
swi tch @ down . To increase the sensi tivity,
move the switc h up. The higher you adjust the
sensitivity, the faster the senso r will react
when it senses moisture on the windsh ield.
The pauses between wiper turns depend not only on the sensitivity setting, but on the ve-
hicle speed as well. ..,.
