It is possible to change the triggering
threshold and the interval between
sweeps by turning the ring 2 :
– F :minimumsensitivity;
– G : maximum sensitivity.
The higher the sensitivity, the quicker
the wipers will react and the faster the
wipe.
When activating automatic wiping or
when increasing sensitivity, one sweep
of the blades is performed.
