Intermittent wiping (proportional to the

The windscreen wash jets are
incorporated into the tip of each wiper
arm.
Screenwash fluid is sprayed along the length
of the wiper blade. This improves visibility and
reduces screenwash fluid consumption.
Switching off
Reverse gear
Automatic wiping
When reverse gear is engaged, the rear wiper
will come into operation automatically if the front
windscreen wipers are operating.
Refer to the corresponding section.
The settings are changed via the Driving/
Vehicle touch screen menu.
Single wipe
► Pull the stalk briefly towards you.
To avoid damaging the wiper blades, do
not operate the screenwash if the
screenwash reservoir is empty.
Only operate the screenwash if there is no
risk of the fluid freezing on the windscreen
and hindering visibility. During the winter
period, use "very cold climate" rated products.
Never top up with water.
In the event of accumulation of snow or
hard frost or if a bicycle carrier is fitted to
a towing device, deactivate the automatic rear
wiper via the vehicle configuration menu.
In position 1 or 2, the wiping frequency is
automatically reduced when the speed of
the vehicle drops below 3 mph (5 km/h).
When the speed is above 6 mph (10 km/h)
again, the wiping frequency returns to the
original frequency (fast or normal).
Rear screenwash
► Turn the ring all the way towards the
dashboard and hold.
The screenwash and the wiper operate for as
long as the ring remains turned.
A final wiping cycle is performed when
screenwashing ends.

ablaktörlők jártak, működtesse újra a kart
a törlés ismételt bekapcsolásához, amint
visszakapcsolta a gyújtást (kivéve, ha a
gyújtás levétele egy percen belül történt).

Lighting and visibility
The rainfall detection function uses a rain/
sunshine sensor located at the top centre of the
windscreen, behind the rear view mirror.
This indicator lamp goes off in the
instrument panel, accompanied by a
message.
Before removing a windscreen wiper blade
Do not cover the rain/sunshine sensor.
When using an automatic car wash,
switch off the automatic wipers and the
ignition.
If the ignition has been off for more than
one minute, the automatic wipers must
be reactivated by pushing the control stalk
downwards.
In winter, wait until the windscreen is
completely clear of ice before activating the
automatic wipers.
Malfunction
If a fault occurs with the automatic wipers, the
wipers operate in intermittent mode.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Switching on
Operating the wiper control stalk within one
minute after switching off the ignition will place
the wiper blades in a vertical position.
► Proceed with the desired operation or the
replacement of the wiper blades.
Special position of the
windscreen wipers
This maintenance position is used while cleaning
or replacing the wiper blades. It can also be
useful, in wintry weather (ice, snow), to release
the wiper blades from the windscreen.
After refitting a windscreen wiper blade
► To return the wiper blades to their initial
position after the operation, switch on the ignition
and operate the wiper control stalk.
► Give a short downwards push to the control
stalk.
A wiping cycle confirms that the instruction has
been accepted.
This indicator lamp lights up on the
instrument panel, accompanied by a
message.
To maintain the effectiveness of the flat
wiper blades, it is advisable to:
– handle them with care.
– clean them regularly using soapy water.
– avoid using them to hold cardboard on the
windscreen.
– replace them at the first signs of wear.
Switching off

downwards or place the control stalk in another
position (Int, 1 or 2).
