Blocking Protection

Blocking Protection

If the wiper cannot wipe the regulation required windshield area on account of difficulty to move, the blocking protection trips under the following conditions:

- If blocking is detected, the wiper is initially switched off for 1 second. Following this, up to 3 restart attempts are performed.
- If the wipers are still blocked, the wiper arms are stopped in the lowest possible position.
- The washer pump is inhibited.
- The pump of the headlight cleaning system is inhibited.

For safety reasons, wiping is not automatically restarted after the blocking protection has tripped in order to protect the customer from injury if he/she tries to free the wiper while it is still switched on!

The blocking protection is not cancelled until the wiper is switched on again.
