Headlamp washing
(option in certain markets)
High pressure washing of the headlamps
consumes a large quantity of washer fluid. To
save fluid, the headlamps are only washed
every fifth time (within a ten minute interval).
When ten minutes has passed since the last
time the windscreen was washed, the
headlamps are washed again at high
pressure the next time the windscreen is
washed.
B – Rain sensor (option)
The rain sensor detects the amount of water
on the windscreen so that the speed of the
windscreen wipers increases or decreases.
The sensitivity of the rain sensors is adjusted
using the thumb wheel (C).
On/Off
When activating the rain sensor, the
windshield wiper stalk must be in position 0.
To activate the rain sensor:
• press the button (B). The rain sensor
symbol is shown in the lower display.
