Automatic windscreen
wipers
The windscreen wipers operate automatically
once rain is detected (sensor behind the
rear view mirror), adapting their speed to the
intensity of the rain without any action on the
part of the driver.
The automatic rain sensitive windscreen
wipers must be reactivated by pushing the
control stalk downwards, if the ignition has
been off for more than one minute.
Operating fault

If a fault occurs with the automatic rain
sensitive wipers, the wipers will operate in

qualified workshop.
Do not cover the rain sensor, integrated with
the sunshine sensor and located at the top
centre of the windscreen, behind the rear

In winter, it is advisable to wait until the
windscreen is completely clear of ice before
activating the automatic rain sensitive wipers.
Give a short downwards push to the
control.
A wiping cycle confirms that the
instruction has been accepted.
