Intermittent variable delay
With the lever in position 1, rotate the switch 
clockwise to increase and counter-clockwise to 
decrease the frequency of the intermittent wipe.
Road speed sensor
The frequency of wiper operation is also 
adjusted automatically according to road 
speed. As the speed of the vehicle increases, 
the wiper frequency increases accordingly to 
help maintain optimum visibility. This feature is 
automatic and cannot be adjusted by the driver.
Speed sensitive wiper operation can be 
disabled by a Land Rover Retailer.Rain sensor variable delay
Your vehicle is equipped with an optical rain 
sensor fitted to the inside of the windshield, 
immediately to the front of the rear view mirror. 
The sensor is able to detect varying amounts of 
dirt or water on the outside of the shield. With 
the wiper switch in the first position, the 
variable delay adjusts automatically according 
to the information supplied by the rain sensor, 
to increase or decrease the frequency of wiper 
operation. You can increase or decrease the 
sensitivity of the rain sensor and therefore the 
frequency of wiper operation, by rotating the 
control - either clockwise to increase or 
counter-clockwise to decrease sensitivity.
If the sensor detects constant rain, the wipers 
automatically operate continuously at normal 
speed wipe.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Ensure that the rain sensor mode is 
deselected BEFORE entering an automatic 
car wash - otherwise, the wipers will operate 
during the car wash program and be 
damaged.

intake grille in front of the windshield.
Note: Always keep the air intake grille clear of 
obstructions such as leaves, snow or ice.
Air outlets are provided to the windshield, face 
and feet - the location of those vents is shown 
in the illustration above. The temperature of the 
air supplied to the vents is controlled by the 
heater.
Information concerning the operation of the 
heating and ventilation system, appears on the 
following pages.Air Vents
The temperature of the air from all vents is 
controlled by the temperature settings of the 
heater.
Rotate the thumbwheel towards the green 
indicator to open, or the white indicator to close 
the vents. Direct the air flow by moving the 
control in the centre of the louvres.
