Maintenance
IMPORTANT
• Use the washer fluid which is recommended by the
manufacturer, or the washer motor may become
damaged by freezing if non-recommended washer
fluid is used in winter.
• The washer pumps may become damaged if used
when the reservoir is empty.
• The wipers may damage the windscreen if used when
dry - always ensure there is adequate fluid in the
reservoir.
Washer Nozzles
Operate the washer periodically to check if the windshield
washer nozzles are clean and they are in the correct
direction.
The windshield washer nozzles are configured during the
production, so generally there is no need for adjustments.If
necessary, a needle can be inserted into the jet orifice and
levered gently into position so that the spray is directed
toward the required area of the windscreen.
The front lamp washer nozzles
*
can not be configured.
If the nozzle is obstructed, insert a needle or thin metal
wire into the hole to remove the obstruction.
Washing Fluid Specification
Use the washing fluid recommended and approved by
the manufacturer.
Refer to ‘Recommended Fluids and
Capacities’.
