Intermittent wiping
! Do not leave windshield wipers in inter-
mittent setting when vehicle is taken to an au-
tomatic car wash or during windshield
cleaning. Windshield wipers will operate in
the presence of water sprayed on the wind-
shield, and windshield wipers may be dam-
aged as a result.
! If you have set intermittent wiping, dirt
on the surface of the rain sensor or optical ef-
fects may cause the windshield wipers to wipe
in an undesired fashion. This could then dam-
age the windshield wiper blades or scratch the
windows. You should therefore switch off the
windshield wipers when weather conditions
are dry.
Intermittent wiping interval is depen-
dent on wetness of windshield.
왘 Turn the combination switch to posi-
tion I.
After the initial wipe, pauses between
wipes are automatically controlled by
the rain sensor.
i Intermittent wiping is interrupted when
the vehicle is at a standstill and a front door is
opened. This protects persons getting into or
out of the vehicIe from being sprayed.
Intermittent wiping will be continued when
앫 all doors are closed
and
앫 the gear selector lever is in position D or R
or
앫 the wiper setting is changed using the
combination switch
Single wipe
왘 Press the combination switch briefly
in direction of arrow 1 to the resis-
tance point.
The windshield wipers wipe one time
without washer fluid.
Wiping with windshield washer fluid
왘 Press the combination switch in direc-
tion of arrow 1 past the resistance
point.
The windshield wipers operate with
washer fluid.
i To prevent smears on the windshield or
noisy/chattering wiper blades, wipe with
windshield washer fluid every now and then
even when it is raining.
! If anything blocks the windshield wipers
(leaves, snow, etc.), switch them off immedi-
ately.
앫 For safety reasons, stop the vehicle in a
safe location and
앫 remove the SmartKey from the starter
switch
or
앫 turn off the engine by pressing the
KEYLESS-GO** start/stop button
(컄 page 61) and open the driver’s
door (with the driver’s door open,
starter switch is in position 0, same as
with SmartKey removed from the
starter switch)
before attempting to remove any block-
age.
앫 Remove blockage.
앫 Turn the windshield wipers on again.
If windshield wipers fail to function at all in
the combination switch position I:
앫 Set the combination switch to the next
higher wiper speed.
앫 Have the windshield wipers checked at
the nearest authorized Maybach Studio.
