Actually just now on my way home discovered a new feature ….

If I click the button for a single wipe, it also pops up the wiper dialog on the touch screen, so all the configurations are right there. You have to act fast before it disappears , so it’s possible that it’s always been there but I didn’t look at the screen right after pressing the button. Anyway, that greatly simplifies the process. While the controls are still touch screen at least I don’t have to click through the menu to find the controls

You can use the left scroll wheel on your steering wheel to adjust the wipers once you've pressed for a single wipe. Just click it right for more, left for less. No need to look at the screen at all really. There's a little graphic on the wiper controls showing you this.

Is that what the little arrows onscreen are meant to say? I’ve been trying to click on them, since it is a touchscreen and I expect to click on controls

Edit: sweet . Thanks for the tip. I think the timeout was just too fast for me to have discovered it
