Vertical windscreen wiper

position

Automatic rain sensitive

windscreen wipers

The windscreen wipers operate automatically,

without any action on the part of the driver, if rain

is detected (sensor behind the rear view mirror),

adapting their speed to the intensity of the rainfall.

Activation

This is controlled manually by the driver by

pushing the stalk downwards to the "AUTO"

position.

It is accompanied by a message in the screen.

This position allows the wiper blades to be lifted

for winter parking, cleaning or replacement

without damaging the bonnet.

In the minute following switching off of the

ignition, any action on the wiper stalk positions

the wipers vertically.

To park the wipers after this has been done,

switch on the ignition and operate the wiper stalk.

Switching off

This is controlled manually by the driver by

moving the stalk upwards then returning it to

position "0".

Operating fault

If an automatic wiping malfunction occurs, the

wipers will operate in intermittent mode.

Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a

qualified workshop.

It is accompanied by a message in the

screen.

The automatic rain sensitive wipers

must be reactivated if the ignition has

been off for more than one minute, by

pushing the stalk downwards.

Do not cover the rain sensor, linked with

the sunshine sensor and located in the

centre of the windscreen behind the rear

view mirror.

Switch off the automatic rain sensitive

wipers when using an automatic car wash.

In winter, to avoid damaging the wiper

blades, it is advisable to wait until the

windscreen is completely clear of ice

before activating the automatic rain

sensitive wipers.

To retain the effectiveness of the flat

wiper blades, it is advisable to:

- handle them with care,

- clean them regularly using soapy

water,

- not use them to hold a sheet of

cardboard against the windscreen,

- replace them at the first signs of

wear.
