501-16-2 Wipers and Washers 501-16-2 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Wipers and Washers CAUTION: The automatic windshield wipers must be switched off before the vehicle is driven into a car wash. If the windshield is iced up, the wipers may only be activated by the rain sensor after the windshield has been completely defrosted. 4 3 5 2 1 E127819 Item Description 1 Windshield washer motor 2 Windshield washer tank 3 Windshield wiper motor 4 Windshield wiper linkage assembly 5 Windshield washer hose 6 Rain sensor 7 Windshield wiper and washer switch 8 Windshield wiper arm and blade Windshield washer nozzle The rain sensor (6) is integrated together with the light sensor in a housing which is mounted behind the rear view mirror on the windshield. NOTE: The rain sensor is an optical measuring instrument. Contamination such as oil, grease or dust impair its correct operation. Before switching on the automatic windshield wipers, the windshield must be clean in the area of the rain sensor. 6 7 8 The rain sensor comprises an opto-electronic measuring and evaluation circuit. The sensor can calculate the amount of precipitation falling on the windshield and request that the windshield wipers are switched on. On the basis of the information provided by the rain sensor, the windshield wipers are then set to the required wipe speed. The windshield wash/wipe system will only operate if the ignition switch is in the position "I" or "II". Five wash functions are available: "Off", "Flick-wipe", "Speed 1", "Speed 2" and "Intermittent" or "Automatic wipe" (depending on the vehicle specification). In "Speed 1" or "Speed 2" mode, the wipers are operating continuously at either normal speed or fast speed.

501-16-3 Wipers and Washers 501-16-3 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION When the intermittent wipe mode is switched on the windshield wipers operate at normal speed with the following wiper delays: ‡ Wiper delay 1: 1 second ‡ Wiper delay 2: 3.5 seconds ‡ Wiper delay 3: 6 seconds ‡ Wiper delay 4: 9,5 seconds ‡ Wiper delay 5: 15.5 seconds ‡ Wiper delay 6: 22 seconds NOTE: In the event of a failure, or if the control resistor is not connected the default time for the wiper delay is 8 seconds. When the windshield washer switch is operated washer fluid is sprayed onto the windshield. After a short delay designed to protect the wiper blades the wipers perform 2 or 3 wipes at low speed. If when the windshield washer switch is activated the windshield wipers are switched off, then a single wipe is performed 4 seconds after the wipers have returned to the home position after performing the 2 or 3 wipes. If when the windshield washer switch is activated the wipers are in intermittent mode, and if the selected wiper delay time is longer than 6 seconds, then a single wipe is performed 6 seconds after the wipers have returned to the home position after performing the 2 or 3 wipes. If the selected delay time is less than 6 seconds then no post wipe is required. The post wipe function on the windshield ensures that any water remaining on the windshield after washing is wiped away. It is only required if the wipers are switched off or they are set to intermittent mode.
