eral seconds between sweeps.

sible to change the time between

special note
When driving every time the vehi -
cle stops, the wipers slow down, e.g.
fast wiping speed is reduced to normal
wiping speed.
As soon as the vehicle moves off,
wiping will return to the speed originally
selected.
Any action on stalk 1 overrides and
cancels automatic operation.
With the vehicle stationary, if for
any reason the wipers cannot move
(e.g. stuck to windscreen by ice),
the system will automatically cut off
the power supply to the wipers.

With the engine running,
press button 2 (the integrated indicator
on the button will come on).
This function demists the rear screen
and the electric door mirrors (if these
are fitted to the vehicle).
The demist function is stopped in two
ways:
– automatically after 10 minutes of op-
eration;
– by pressing button 2 again (the indi -
cator light goes out).
Before using the rear wiper, check that
no objects are obstructing the travel of
the blade.
In frosty weather, make sure that the
wiper blades are not stuck by ice (risk
of motor overheating).
Keep an eye on the condition of the
blades. Replace the wiper blades as
soon as they begin to lose efficiency
(approximately once a year).
