Wiper and washer controls
You can control the wipers and washers using the scroll wheel and buttons on the left-hand steering wheel stalk.
Washers
The washer nozzles are integrated into the wiper arms for efficient washer fluid distribution.
When the windscreen washers and headlights are on at the same time, the headlights are washed automatically. If the washer fluid level is low, the headlights washers only work when either the high beam or passing beam are on. This is to keep the windscreen washers active for as long as possible.
Your car tells you when it's time to refill the washer fluid. When washer fluid is running low, a message appears in the centre display.
Front wiper modes
The front wiper has an automatic mode as well as multiple manual speeds. Each wiper mode sets a different speed for the wiper movements, so you need to select the appropriate mode for the conditions you are driving in. You can see the current wiper mode in the driver display. Between drives, the car resets to automatic mode by default.
When automatic mode is active, the car uses information from its rain sensor to activate the wipers and control their speed. You can change the rain sensor sensitivity in settings. When the rain sensor is active, you can see a symbol in the driver display.
Rear wiper
Use the left-hand steering wheel stalk to manually turn the rear wiper on or off.
Important
Maintenance, refilling and replacing
- Clean the wiper blades regularly.
- Replace the wiper blades if they show signs of wear.
- Refill washer fluid when your car tells you to.
- Avoid using the wipers without lubrication from either rain or washer fluid. It can cause wear or damage.
Car wash safety
Turn the automatic mode off when you enter a car wash. Otherwise, the rain sensor will cause the wipers to activate, which could lead to damage.
