Before operating the wipers in wintry  
conditions, clear any snow, ice or frost  
from the windscreen and around the wiper  
arms and blades.  
Malfunction  
In the first case, this warning lamp  
is displayed on the instrument panel,  
accompanied by a message if the  
sensor is masked.  
Do not operate the wipers on a dry  
windscreen. In extremely hot or cold  
weather, check that the wiper blades are not  
stuck to the windscreen before operating the  
wipers.  
This is a normal behavior, which does not  
request the support of a qualified workshop.  
Stop the vehicle and verify if the front camera is  
covered by dirt, mud, sand, snow, ice or anything  
preventing the sensing.  
Single wipe  
After the ignition has been switched off  
and the windscreen wiper is no longer  
operated (wiper control stalk set to 0 or no  
automatic wiping for more than 30 seconds),  
the wipers may move slightly at the foot of the  
windscreen.  
The system is operational again after the  
detection field has been cleaned.  
After using an automatic car wash, you  
may temporarily notice abnormal noises  
and poorer wiping performance. You do not  
need to replace the wiper blades.  
In the second case, this warning lamp  
is displayed on the instrument panel,  
accompanied by an audible signal and  
a message if a malfunction occurs with  
the adaptive headlamp lighting or the camera.  
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a  
qualified workshop.  
Windscreen wipers  
In position 1 or 2, the wiping frequency is  
automatically reduced when the speed of  
the vehicle drops below 3 mph (5 km/h).  
When the speed is above 6 mph (10 km/h)  
again, the wiping frequency returns to the  
original frequency (fast or normal).  
Do not cover the rain/sunshine sensor  
located at the top centre of the windscreen  
behind the interior rear view mirror; the  
associated functions would no longer be  
controlled.  
Single wipe

Windscreen wash  
Pull the wiper control stalk towards you and  
hold.  
In AUTO mode, the front wipers work  
automatically and adapt to the intensity of  
precipitation depending on the sensitivity of the  
sensor selected.  
A final wiping cycle is performed when  
screenwashing ends.  
The lower position corresponds to the lowest  
sensitivity of the sensor.  
The upper position corresponds to the highest  
sensitivity of the sensor.  
The higher the sensitivity, the faster the system  
reacts and increases the wiping frequency.  
A rotation of the ring from a lower position to a  
higher position triggers a confirmation wiping.  
The rainfall detection function uses a rain/  
sunshine sensor located at the top centre of the  
windscreen, behind the rear view mirror.  
Screenwash fluid is sprayed along the  
length of the wiper blade. This improves  
visibility and reduces screenwash fluid  
consumption.  
In certain weather conditions (e.g. fog,  
frost, snow, projections on salty roads), the  
driver may have to return to manual wiping.  
With automatic air conditioning, any action  
on the screenwash control results in  
temporary closure of the air intake to protect  
the passenger compartment from any odour.  
After the ignition has been switched off for  
more than 1 minute with the wiper control  
stalk in the AUTO position, when the ignition  
is switched on again:

To avoid damaging the wiper blades,  
do not operate the screenwash if the  
screenwash reservoir is empty.  
Only operate the screenwash if there is no  
risk of the fluid freezing on the windscreen  
and hindering visibility. During the winter  
period, use "very cold climate" rated products.  
Never top up with water.  
Turn the ring to adjust the sensitivity of the

Special position of the  
windscreen wipers  
Changing a wiper blade  
Rotate the worn wiper blade to the stop in  
relation to the arm axle.  
This maintenance position is used while cleaning  
or replacing the wiper blades. It can also be  
useful, in wintry weather (ice, snow), to release  
the wiper blades from the windscreen.  
Removing/Refitting at the front  
Unclip the worn wiper blade closest to you  
and remove it.  
Install the new wiper blade and clip it to  
the arm; a clicking sound indicates correct  
assembly.  
To maintain the effectiveness of the flat  
wiper blades, it is advisable to:  
– handle them with care.  
– clean them regularly using soapy water.  
– avoid using them to hold cardboard on the  
windscreen.  
Connect the hydraulic quick connector of the  
arm to the filler neck of the new wiper blade;  
a clicking sound indicates correct assembly.  
Repeat the procedure for the other wiper  
blade.  
– replace them at the first signs of wear.  
Starting with the wiper blade closest to you,  
once again hold each arm by the rigid  
section, then guide it carefully onto the  
windscreen.  
Before removing a windscreen wiper blade  
Carry out these wiper blade replacement  
operations from the driver's side.  
Starting with the wiper blade farthest from  
you, hold each arm by the rigid section and  
raise it as far as possible.  
Take care not to hold the arms at the jet  
locations.  
Do not touch the wiper blades - risk of  
irreparable deformation.  
Do not release them while moving them. Risk  
of damaging the windscreen!  
Operating the wiper control stalk immediately  
after switching off the ignition will place the wiper  
blades in a vertical position.

In the event of accumulation of snow or hard  
frost or if a bicycle carrier is fitted to a towing  
system, deactivate the automatic rear wiper via  
the Settings > Vehicle touch screen application.  
Once again hold the arm by the rigid section,  
then guide it carefully onto the rear screen.

General safety  
recommendations  
The screenwash and the wiper operate for as  
long as the ring remains turned. A final wiping  
cycle is performed when screen washing ends.  
An additional jet is fitted above the number plate  
to clean the reversing camera (depending on  
version).  
Intermittent wiping  
Screenwash-wipe  
Do not remove the labels attached  
in different places on your vehicle.  
They include safety warnings as well as  
identification information for the vehicle.  
Changing a rear wiper blade  
If the ignition has been switched off with the rear  
wiper active, operate the ring to reactivate wiping  
when the ignition is switched on again (unless  
the ignition was off for less than 1 minute).  
The first rotation of the ring to the screenwash  
position triggers a single wipe. If the ring is then  
left in the intermittent wiping position, the rear  
wiper adopts a wiping speed dependent on that  
of the windscreen wipers and the speed of the  
vehicle.  
Depending on country regulations, certain  
safety equipment may be mandatory:  
high visibility safety vests, warning triangles,  
breathalysers, spare bulbs, spare fuses, fire  
extinguisher, first aid kit, mud flaps at the rear  
of the vehicle, etc.
