Automatic wipers

[Supershred]

I am not a fan of auto-wipers. It seems the stalk control on my DS3 goes straight from intermittant to auto, with no '0' as marked on the stalk itself. Is there some way of switching off the auto wipers or am I just missing something and being stupid ?

[WTF]

One push up of the stalk until they auto wiper image goes from the centre console will do it

The centre display will also say 'Auto Wipers Turned off'

[Supershred]

That is what I would have expected to happen, but one push up and it the wiper takes a swipe - so must be in intermittant mode?? The image goes off the display, but I have not noticed the centre console....

[WTF]

No, it will take a swipe up becuase you have pushed the stalk up. But that's it from then on. They are off if on 0

One push down puts auto back on again.

When I first got this DS3 I would push the stalk up, auto would go off, it would do one wipe, so I'd push it down and auto would come on and repeat......

This is all with it set to 0

No worries

It's no DS3Club secret that I am quite special. I was going to offer top record it now for you..... then I realised it would need to be raining for this to work.....

I probably got the explanation wrong but mine does it like this: the single wipe mode (stalk down, comes back up on it's own) activates auto mode. The stalk is now in 0 (auto mode ON). To deactivate auto mode put the stalk up (intermittent mode) and the return it to 0, now auto mode is OFF.

This is the correct operation of the controls for the auto wiper function. Thank you for the clear explanation of the way they operate.

Wow, it certainly is fun working out these little idiosyncracies on a new DS3. Thanks Citroen! Thanks for the replies too!

Isn't this in the manual ? :confused:
