manage the cleaning of the windscreen
in accordance with the amount of

The sensor is activated when the ring
nut A fig. 20 is turned to
position:
the windscreen wiper stroke frequency
is thus adjusted in accordance with
the amount of water on the windscreen.The sensitivity of the rain sensor can be
adjusted through the Setup menu
(see the “Display” paragraph in the

section).

battery; defrost it first to prevent the risk of
explosion. If the battery was frozen, have
it inspected by specialised technicians
before recharging to check that the internal
elements are not damaged and that the
casing is not cracked, which could cause
poisonous, corrosive acid to leak.
