Switching the windshield wiper on/
off
! Do not operate the windshield wipers
when the windshield is dry, as this could
damage the wiper blades. Moreover, dust
that has collected on the windshield can
scratch the glass if wiping takes place when
the windshield is dry.
If it is necessary to switch on the windshield
wipers in dry weather conditions, always
use washer fluid when operating the wind-
shield wipers. !
If the windshield wipers leave smears on
the windshield after the vehicle has been
washed in an automatic car wash, wax or
other residues may be the reason for this.
Clean the windshield using washer fluid
after washing the vehicle in an automatic
car wash.
! Vehicles with rain/light sensor:
Switch the wipers off in dry weather. Oth-
erwise, dirt or optical effects may cause
undesired windshield wiper sweeps. This
could then damage the windshield wiper
blades or scratch the windshield.
The windshield will no longer be wiped prop-
erly if the wiper blades are worn. Replace the
wiper blades twice a year (Y page 108), ide-
ally in spring and fall. Combination switch
X
Turn the SmartKey to position 1or 2in the
ignition lock.
X Turn the combination switch in the direc-
tion of arrow 0044to the appropriate setting
depending on the intensity of the rain.
X Single wipe: push the combination switch
briefly to the pressure point in the direction
of arrow 0043.
X To wipe with washer fluid: press the com-
bination switch beyond the pressure point
in the direction of arrow 0043.
i Wipe the windshield using washer fluid
even if it is raining. By doing so, you will
prevent smears on the windshield. Windshield wipers
107Lights and windshield wipers Z

The detent positions of the combination
switch correspond to the following wiper
speeds:
0W indshield wipers off
II ntermittent wipe
II Normal wipe
III Rapid wipe
i Canada only:
If the windshield wipers are switched on
and you stop the vehicle, the windshield
wiper speed is reduced. For example, if you
have selected level IIand stop the vehicle,
wiping continues with intermittent wipe
while the vehicle is stationary. If intermit-
tent wipe is selected, the intervals become
longer.
Vehicles with a rain and light sensor:
you can use level Ias the universal setting.
The rain and light sensor sets the appropri-
ate wiping frequency automatically,
according to the intensity of the rain. When
you stop the vehicle, levels IIIand IIare
switched down to level Iautomatically.
The windshield wiper will return to the orig-
inal level when you drive faster than
5 mph (8 km/h).
You can adjust the sensitivity of the rain and
light sensor using the on-board computer
(Y page 196).
Information on checking the washer fluid
level can be found in the "Maintenance and
care" (Y page 257) section. Switching the rear window wiper on/

age is too low. The rear window defroster has
switched off prematurely or cannot be acti-
vated.

required, e.g. reading lamps or interior
lighting.
If enough on-board voltage is available again
within 30 seconds, the rear window defroster
automatically switches on again. It otherwise
remains switched off. Switching air-recirculation mode on/
