Instruments and controls Priority of audible information If two or more functions are active simultaneously, the most important function at that time will be prioritized. If, for example, the direction indicators are active when you engage reverse, the parking assistance (if fitted) will be heard instead of the direction indicators. When reverse is disengaged, the direction indicators will be heard, if they are still active. 101 Wipers and washers Windshield wipers Position 1 is a spring-loaded position that will produce a single sweep of the wipers. In position 2 you can set the delay period for intermittent wiping using the thumbwheel on the stalk switch. There are 5 delay periods from which to choose, ranging from 2 to 15 seconds. The wipers always return to their home position when the ignition is turned off. Back-Up The back-up lights come on automatically when reverse gear is engaged or selected with the ignition switched on. To leave the wipers positioned vertically on the windshield, proceed as follows: 1 Switch off the engine and remove the remote control. 2 Activate the wipers within the next 16 seconds by pressing the stalk switch down. When the ignition is next switched on the wipers will return to their home position. Changing wipers blades, see page 217.
