How to adjust automatic wiper sensitivity in a Zeekr 7X
Automatic mode relies on rain sensing, while its sensitivity is a separate display setting. Learn both controls before trying to correct an unsuitable wiping rate.
Checked against the official European English MY2025 7X online manual on 27 October 2026. China-market apps, hardware and OTA versions differ. Match your car’s display and equipment; the Chinese report supplies context, while the manufacturer manual supplies the procedure.
Set the outer dial on the left stalk to Automatic, then open Vehicle → Basic and adjust Auto wiper sensitivity. Use a suitable manual wiping speed whenever visibility requires it.
Chinese owner report: context, not a diagnosis
A reply reports the wrong driver seating settings being restored and rain-wiper sensitivity seeming different after updates. This is an individual report or discussion, not evidence of a widespread defect. The checks below concern the European export car; they do not establish what caused the Chinese owner’s symptom.
Before you start
Park while learning the menu. Remove snow and ice, keep the windscreen clean and check the blades before judging the sensor’s response.

Check the result
Do not keep experimenting with menus while driving in rain. A post-update owner complaint does not prove that sensitivity adjustment repairs a software change. Poor clearing can also need blade or glass care; persistent sensing problems warrant service. Do not operate a frozen wiper or run the washer with an empty reservoir.
Common questions
Does changing sensitivity enable Automatic mode?+
Check the stalk too. The manual requires Automatic on the outer dial for the sensor to control wiping.
Should the automatic system replace my visibility judgement?+
No. Choose a suitable wiping speed and stop safely if you cannot maintain a clear view.
