03 Your driving environment Wipers and washers The rain sensor is automatically deactivated when the key is removed from the ignition slot or five minutes after the ignition has been switched off. Heated washer nozzles* The washer nozzles are heated automatically in cold weather to help prevent the washer fluid from freezing. CAUTION The rain sensor should be deactivated when washing the car in an automatic car wash, etc. If the rain sensor function is left on, the wipers will start inadvertently in the car wash and could be damaged. High-pressure headlight washing* High-pressure headlight washing consumes a large quantity of washer fluid. To save fluid, the headlights are washed using two alternatives: 03 • Low/high beam headlights on. The headlights will be washed the first time the windshield is washed. Thereafter, the headlights will only be washed once for every five times the windshield is washed within a 10-minute period. Windshield washing • Parking lights on. Optional Active Bending Lights will be washed once for every five times the windshield is washed. Normal halogen headlights will not be washed. CAUTION Use ample washer fluid when washing the windshield. The windshield should be thoroughly wet when the wipers are in operation. Washing function Move the lever toward the steering wheel to start the windshield and headlight washers. After the lever is released the wipers make several extra sweeps. * Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction. 103
