VISIBILITY
Automatic windscreen wiping
The windscreen wipers operate auto-
matically, without any action on the part
of the driver, if rain is detected (sensor
behind the interior mirror), adapting their
speed to the intensity of the rainfall.

Operating fault
If an automatic wiping malfunction
occurs, the wipers will operate in inter-
mittent mode.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Special position of the
windscreen wipers
For optimum and lasting wiping
of the "fl at-blade" wiper blades,
it is advisable to:
- handle them with care,
- clean them regularly using
soapy water,
- change them approximately
every 6 months,
- avoid using them to retain
cardboard on the windscreen.
Do not cover the rain sensor,
linked with the brightness sensor
and located in the centre of the
windscreen behind the interior
mirror.
Switch off the automatic wiping
when using an automatic car
wash.
In winter, it is advisable to wait
until the windscreen is completely
clear of ice before activating the
automatic wiping.
The automatic wiping must be re-
activated if the ignition has been
off for more than one minute, by
pushing stalk A downwards.
In the minute following switching off of the
ignition, any action on the stalk positions
the wipers vertically.
This action enables you to position the
wiper blades for winter parking, cleaning
or replacement without damaging the
bonnet.
To park the wipers after this has been
done, switch on the ignition and operate
the stalk.
This is controlled manually by the driver by
pushing stalk A to the "AUTO" position.
This is controlled manually by the driver
by moving stalk A upwards and returning
it to position "0" .
It is accompanied by the indica-
tor lamp in the instrument panel
switching off and a message on
the multifunction screen.
It is accompanied by the lighting
of this indicator lamp in the in-
strument panel and a message
on the multifunction screen.
