Windscreen wipers and washers
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Front wipers and washers
76
Rear window wipers and washers / reversing camera cleaning system
77
Headlight cleaning system
77
The windscreen wipers and the wash system only operate if the ignition is
switched on and the bonnet and boot are closed.
WARNINGDo not use the windscreen washer system at low temperatures, without
heating the windscreen beforehand. The window washer fluid could other-
wise freeze on the windscreen and restrict the view to the front.
CAUTION
■ If the windscreen wipers are in rest position, they cannot be folded out from
the windscreen. The wipers must be set to the service position to raise them
off the windscreen » page 294.■
In cold temperatures and during the winter, check before switching on the
ignition that the wiper blades are not frozen to the windscreen. If the wind-
screen wipers are switched on when the blades are frozen to the windscreen,
this may damage both the blades and windscreen wiper motor.
■
Carefully release the frozen-on windscreen wiper blades from the wind-
screen and remove snow and ice.
■
Handle the windscreen wipers with care - there is the risk of damaging the
windscreen with the windscreen wiper arms.
■
Do not switch on the ignition when the front windscreen wiper arms are fol-
ded down - there is the danger of damaging the bonnet by the windscreen
wiper arms.
■
If there is an obstacle on the windscreen, the wipers will try to push away
the obstacle five times. Thereafter, the wipers will stop to prevent them be-
coming damaged. Turn on the wipers again only after the obstacle has been
removed.
Note■ Each time the ignition switches off for the third time, the position of the
windscreen wipers changes. This counteracts an early fatigue of the wiper
blades.■
The windscreen washer nozzles for the windscreen are heated when the en-
gine is running and the outside temperature is less than +10 °C.

After releasing the operating lever, the wipers will make from 2 to 3 wiper
strokes.
At a speed of more than 2 km/h, the wiper wipes once again 5 seconds after
the last wiper stroke in order to wipe the last drops from the windscreen. This
function can be activated/deactivated by a specialist garage.
