Windshield wipers
Switching the windshield wipers
on/off
!
Do not operate the windshield wipers
when the windshield is dry, as this could
damage the wiper blades. Moreover, dust
that has collected on the windshield can
scratch the glass if wiping takes place
when the windshield is dry.
If it is necessary to switch on the wind-
shield wipers in dry weather conditions,
always use washer fluid when operating the
windshield wipers.
!Make sure that the front windshield wip-
ers are free of ice. The wiper motor could
otherwise overheat.
!If the windshield wipers leave smears on
the windshield after the vehicle has been
washed in an automatic car wash, wax or
other residues may be the reason for this.
Clean the windshield using washer fluid
after washing the vehicle in an automatic
car wash.
!Vehicles with a rain sensor: if the wind-
shield becomes dirty in dry weather con-
ditions, the windshield wipers may be
activated inadvertently. This could then
damage the windshield wiper blades or
scratch the windshield.
For this reason, you should always switch
off the windshield wipers in dry weather.
