Visibility

Do not cover the rain sensor, linked with
the sunshine sensor and located in the
centre of the windscreen behind the
rear view mirror.
Switch off the automatic rain sensitive
wipers 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 rain
sensitive wipers.



Operating fault

If a fault occurs with the automatic rain
sensitive wipers, the wipers will operate in
intermittent mode.
Have it checked by PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.










Special position of the
windscreen wipers
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 positions the wipers
ver tically on the windscreen.
To park the wipers after this has been done,
switch on the ignition and operate the stalk. To maintain the effectiveness of the "flat-
blade" wiper blades, it is advisable to:


- handle them with care,

- clean them regularly using soapy
water,

- avoid using them to retain
cardboard on the windscreen,

- replace them at the first signs of
wear.
