In this short and simple guide, see how to activate or deactivate the automatic wiper sensor on the Citroen C5. First, get in the vehicle and start the ignition or the engine; then lower the left wiper lever to activate the sensor and thus the automatic operation (the relevant option will appear on the instrument display), as shown in the video.
