Limited functionality of the rain sensor when the following information points are not observed:
- An adhesive pad must be used when reinstalling the rain sensor.
- When assembling the adhesive pad, air should not be trapped between the windscreen and the adhesive pad or between the adhesive pad and the rain sensor.
- When installing the adhesive pad, a temperature of approx 20°C for the windscreen, the rain sensor and the adhesive pad must be ensured. Carefully heat the windscreen with a hot-air gun for example.
- The sensor on the sticking surface must not be touched by fingers.
- If the sensor is new, remove the protection cap before the sensor is stuck onto the windscreen.
- When sticking a new sensor, make sure that no air pockets are caught between the gel and the windscreen. Air pockets could impair the function of the sensor.
- Sensor, orientation light, wires and wiring ducts are spare parts.
