The method to turn off the rear wiper on the Lynk & Co 01 is to pull the lever located at the lower right side of the steering wheel backward one notch. The wiper switch of the Lynk & Co 01 is in the form of a stalk, positioned at the right rear of the steering wheel. Wipers, also known as windshield wipers, are devices used to wipe away rain and dust attached to the vehicle's windshield, improving the driver's visibility and enhancing driving safety. The Lynk & Co 01 is a new-era SUV designed for urban young people, with a body length of 4512mm, width of 1857mm, height of 1689mm, and a wheelbase of 2734mm. The Lynk & Co 01 features a comprehensive NVH luxury configuration, which prevents noise and vibration at the source, blocks noise transmission paths, optimizes sound quality, and ensures purer and more stable frequency sound quality.

I've been driving the Lynk & Co 01 for two years, and the rear wiper is mainly operated via the right-hand stalk on the steering wheel. Locate the rotatable ring at the top of the stalk—if it currently shows a washer symbol or raindrop icon, turn it counterclockwise to the OFF position to stop. Be careful not to confuse the front wiper stalk (controlled by up/down movements) with the rear wiper's rotary ring. Also, remember to manually turn off the rear wiper when opening the trunk on rainy days, as it might auto-activate via sensors. Before turning off the engine, make it a habit to check if the ring is reset to OFF to prevent the wiper from accidentally scratching the glass upon next startup.

See that long lever on the right side of the steering wheel? The one with a rotating ring at the top is the rear wiper control. Turn it clockwise for washer fluid spray, and counterclockwise back to OFF to deactivate. Pay special attention - when closing the tailgate in rainy weather, manually return the knob to OFF first, otherwise door-closing vibrations may accidentally reactivate it. The car's design is quite clever - you can operate the wiper single-handedly while driving, but avoid adjusting the knob during turns. By the way, remember to clean the rubber blade if the rear wiper hasn't been used for extended periods, to prevent aging and sticking to the glass which could obstruct visibility.

The wiper stalk of the Lynk & Co 01 is located on the right side of the steering wheel. The rear wiper switch is the scaled knob at the top—simply turn it to the OFF position to stop. Before operating, make sure you don't press the washer button (located at the end of the knob), otherwise it will spray water while wiping. If the wiper still moves slightly after turning it off, it means there's residual water from the last wash—just wait a few seconds for it to automatically reset. This is much more convenient than old-fashioned physical buttons, as you can easily locate the OFF position with just a glance while driving.

The wiper control lever has two systems: moving it up and down controls the front windshield, while rotating the round ring controls the rear window. To turn off the rear wiper, gently twist the knob counterclockwise with your finger until you hear a slight click, which indicates the OFF position. Note that after car washes or in cold weather, the knob may freeze and get stuck—avoid forcing it to prevent damage to the mechanism. It's advisable to check the knob position before parking and turning off the engine; otherwise, the wiper may activate automatically upon the next startup. Keep a dry towel in the car to occasionally wipe the rubber blades, which can extend the wiper's lifespan.

When I first got the car, I also spent quite some time figuring out the rear wiper switch, only to find it’s actually very simple. Just turn the knob at the top of the right-hand wiper stalk counterclockwise all the way to the OFF position to stop it. When operating while driving, avoid turning periods; make sure to steady the steering wheel with one hand before reaching out to turn the knob. If the knob won’t budge, it might be due to the rubber blade being stuck by ice or snow—just let the car warm up for a few minutes to fix it. It’s recommended to clean the rubber blade gaps monthly during the rainy season to prevent resin or oil buildup that could cause squeaking. The knob-style design on the Lynk & Co 01 is quite convenient, allowing for blind operation without even looking at the dashboard.
