Special position of the
windscreen wipers










Automatic rain sensitive
windscreen wipers
The windscreen wipers operate automati-
cally, without any action on the part of the
driver, if rain is detected (sensor behind
the rear view mirror), adapting their speed
to the intensity of the rainfall.

Activation
This is controlled manually by the driver
by pushing the stalk downwards to the
"AUTO"
position.
It is accompanied by a message in the
screen. This position permits release of the
windscreen wiper blades.
It is used for cleaning or replacement
of the blades. It can also be useful, in
winter, to detach the blades from the
windscreen.
In the moment following switching the
ignition off, any action on the stalk posi-
tions the wipers vertically on the wind-
screen.
To park the wipers after this has been
done, switch on the ignition and operate
the stalk.
Do not cover the rain sensor, linked
with the sunshine sensor and located in the centre of the windscreen be-
hind the rear view mirror.
Switch off the automatic rain sen-
sitive wipers when using an auto-
matic car wash.
In winter, to avoid damaging the
wiper blades, it is advisable to wait
until the windscreen is completely
clear of ice before activating the
automatic rain sensitive wipers.


The automatic rain sensitive wipers
must be reactivated if the ignition has
been off for more than one minute,
by pushing the stalk downwards.


Switching off
This is controlled manually by the driver
by moving the stalk upwards then re-
turning it to position "0"
.
It is accompanied by a message in the
screen.
Operating fault
If an automatic wiping malfunction
occurs, the wipers will operate in inter-
mittent mode.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
To maintain the effectiveness of
the "fl at-blade" wiper blades, it is
advisable to:


- handle them with care,

- clean them regularly using
soapy water,

- avoid using them to retain card-
board on the windscreen,

- replace them at the fi rst signs of
wear.
