The screenwash and windscreen wiper operate
for as long as the control stalk is pulled.The front screenwash includes a wiper
blade system with integral washer jets.
The screenwash fluid is sprayed along
the length of the wiper blade. This
improves visibility and reduces the
consumption of screenwash fluid.
In some cases, depending on the
contents or colour of the liquid and on
the outdoor brightness, the liquid spray
may be hardly noticeable.
To avoid damaging the wiper blades, do
not operate the windscreen washer if the
windscreen washer reservoir is empty.
Only operate the windscreen washer if
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.
Termination of the screenwash is followed by a
final wiping cycle.
