5. Rear window wash/wipe:

WINDSCREEN WIPERS

ꢀ

Press and hold to operate the rear

washer and wiper. The wiper will

operate for two further wipes after the

button is released. After a few seconds

a drip wipe process will clear any

residual water.

6. Single wipe of windscreen, or hold down

for further continuous wipes.

7. Windscreen wash/wipe:

ꢀ

Pull and hold to operate the front

washers and wipers. The wipers will

operate for three further wipes after the

stalk is released. After a few seconds a

drip wipe will clear any residual water.

8. INT - rear wiper, intermittent operation.

The intermittent delay period is controlled

by adjusting the collar (1). The delay period

and number of wipes will then be adjusted

automatically depending on vehicle

speed.This is a dealer configurable option.

9. ON - rear wiper, continuous operation.

Do not operate the windscreen wipers

on a dry screen.

1. Rotate the collar to adjust the intermittent

period. The intermittent delay period will

vary and is controlled by either vehicle

speed or a rain sensor. The control must be

in position (4) to be operational. This is a

dealer configurable option.

In freezing or very hot conditions,

ensure that the wipers have not stuck to

the glass.

Remove any snow, ice or frost from the

screen, around the wiper arms and

blades and the screen scuttle, before

operating the wipers.

2. High speed wipe.

3. Low speed wipe.

4. AUTO or intermittent wipe. Controlled by

either a rain sensor or vehicle speed. In this

position, the rain sensor becomes active

and will determine when the wipers are

required to operate. If the rain sensor is not

configured by your dealer, intermittent

wipe will operate in conjunction with the

setting of control (1).

Note: If wiper blades become stuck or jammed,

an electronic cut-out will temporarily halt wiper

operation. If this happens, switch off the

wipers and the ignition. Clear any obstructions

and free the wiper blades, before attempting to

switch on the ignition.

Note: Front wipers will not operate while the

bonnet is open and vehicle speed is below

3km/h (1.9mph).

RAIN SENSOR/SPEED SENSITIVE

WIPER CONTROL

SPEED SENSITIVE WIPERS

If vehicle speed drops below 6km/h (3.7mph)

with the wipers operating in positions (2) or

(3), the wipers will switch to the next lowest

speed. When vehicle speed increases to over

6km/h (3.7mph), the original wiper speed

setting is restored automatically.

Intermittent operation of the wipers is

controlled initially by either vehicle speed or a

rain sensor located at the upper edge of the

windscreen. Both methods of control will clear

the screens adequately. Vehicle speed control

is set by the user and control via a rain sensor

is automatic.

DRIP WIPE

If the drip wipe function is configured, the

wipers will operate four seconds after a

wash/wipe cycle has finished, to clear any

remaining drips from the windscreen.

This function can be enabled/disabled

by your Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

RAIN SENSOR

This function can be enabled/disabled

by your Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

Ensure that the wipers are switched off

before entering a car wash. If the rain

sensitive wipers operate during the car

washing process, damage may occur to

the wiper mechanism.

WINTER PARK POSITION

The wipers can be set to park in a higher

position than normal. This allows the blades to

be lifted from the screen to prevent freezing.

The ‘Wipers winter park’ option can be selected

from the settings menu. See 56, VEHICLE

INFORMATION AND SETTINGS MENU.

The rain sensor is able to detect the presence

and amount of rain/dirt/snow on the

windscreen and automatically activates the

windscreen wipers accordingly. Static droplets

may not be detected on initial start-up, use a

single wipe to clear the screen.

HEADLAMP WASHERS

To activate the rain sensitivity wipers, move the

wiper stalk to the rain sensor position (4). A

single wipe will be actioned.

The optional headlamp power wash operates

automatically with the windscreen wash and

will operate only If the headlamps are switched

on and there is sufficient washer fluid in the

reservoir.

Adjust the rain sensitivity collar (1) as required.

Increasing sensitivity while position (4) is

selected will action a single wipe.

Headlamp wash operates every fourth

operation of the screen washers, provided the

headlamps are still switched on and

approximately ten minutes have elapsed since

the last headlamp wash.

If a front door is opened while the wipers are

operating, the wipers will be disabled.

Operation will restart when the doors are

closed again.

Switching the headlamps or ignition off and

back on again, will reset the cycle.

See 182, TOPPING UP THE WASHER FLUID.

Wipers and washers

Note: The headlamps are washed alternately to

prevent the washer fluid from reducing the

light output from both headlamps

simultaneously.

REAR WIPER

If reverse gear is selected while the front

wipers are operating, the rear wiper will start

automatically and continue as long as reverse

gear is selected. The wipe interval is dependent

on the front wipers setting.

If reverse gear is selected while the rear wiper

control is in the INT position, the wiper will

operate for a single sweep of the rear screen.

When stationary, if the tailgate is opened while

the rear wiper is operating, the wiper will stop.

When the tailgate is closed, the wiper will start

to operate again after a delay of three seconds.

If the tailgate is open and vehicle speed is

above 3km/h (2mph) the wiper will operate

normally.
