Here are the steps to set up the automatic sensing wipers on BMW X3: 1. After starting the vehicle, press the button on top of the wiper lever located on the right side of the steering wheel. 2. When the LED indicator on the lever lights up, move the wiper control lever to AUTO, and the sensor will automatically control the wipers without requiring driver intervention. To adjust the sensitivity, rotate the scroll wheel in the middle of the wiper lever. Below are some precautions for using wipers: 1. Maintain cleanliness—if streaks appear on the windshield, it indicates dirt on the wiper blades. 2. Check the rubber—if the windshield produces a harsh noise, the wiper blade rubber may have hardened, worn out, or cracked. 3. Avoid direct sunlight—when the vehicle is not in use for an extended period, park it in a shaded area. Some owners park their cars outdoors under direct sunlight, which can damage the wiper blades, as rubber deteriorates faster under high temperatures. 4. Use proper washer fluid—many people use plain water instead of windshield washer fluid, which harms both the wipers and the windshield. Therefore, using a reputable brand of washer fluid is essential. Additionally, always monitor the remaining washer fluid level.
