To reduce the risk of lime scale deposits on the
spray nozzles, use clean water with low amounts
of calc ium . Always add window cleaner to the wa­
ter. When the outside temperatures a re cold, an
anti-freezing agent should be added to the water
so that it does not freeze.
- The concent ration of anti-freezing agent
must be adjusted to the vehicle operating
conditions in the respective climate. A con­
cent ration that is too high can lead to vehi­
cle damage.
- Never add radiator anti-freeze or other addi­
tives to the washer fluid.
- Do not use a glass cleaner that contains
paint solvents, because this could damage
the paint .
