there is no risk of the fluid freezing on the
windscreen and hindering visibility. Always
use windscreen washer fluid suitable for low
temperatures during the winter period.

–
handle them with care.
–
clean them regularly using soapy water
.
–
avoid using them to hold cardboard on the
windscreen.
–
replace them at the first signs of wear
