4-26 On the road
Windscreen wash/wipe
Push the button on the end of the switch
to obtain the wash/wipe programme.
If the wipers are selected off or
intermittent, the washers will operate at
slow speed during the washing action
when the button is pressed. When the
button is released, the wipers will
complete three further wipes.
After the wash cycle has been completed
the wipers will pause and then complete
a drip wipe to clean any remaining drips
of moisture from the screen. If rain
sensitive wipers are fitted and selected
then the wipers will operate until no
moisture is detected. Drip wipe can be
turned on or off by a Dealer, if required.
Headlight powerwash
Note: The headlight powerwash units are
mounted between the front headlights.
The headlight powerwash feature will
operate if the ignition is in position ‘II’
and sidelights are switched ON. It will not
operate if the washer fluid level is low.
When the windscreen wash/wipe button
is pressed, the headlight powerwash
directs a short burst at the headlights. If
the wash/wipe button is held, the screen
wash cycle will continue for up to
20 seconds.
The headlight powerwash will operate the
first time the wash/wipe button is pressed
and thereafter every sixth succeeding
wash/wipe operation. If the headlights or
ignition are switched OFF and ON again,
headlight powerwash will operate on the
next press of the wash/wipe button.
Note: If the washer fluid level is low in
the reservoir the windscreen wipers will
not operate when windscreen wash is
selected even though there may be washer
fluid remaining in the reservoir and
sprayed onto the screen. This is to prevent
damage to the blades, or scratching of the
glass, or smearing dirt across the screen.
Flick wipe can be selected to clear the
sprayed fluid from the screen.
