When the vehicle lighting system is switched 
on, the headlamps are cleaned at regular and 
appropriate intervals.

Do not use the washers if there is any 
danger that the fluid will freeze on the 

windshield. If you do, your vision could be 
obscured. Antifreeze should therefore be 
added to the fluid, refer to Washer fluid. 
Do not use the washers when the washer fluid 
reservoir is empty, otherwise you will damage 
the washer pump.

<

Windshield washer nozzles

The windshield washer nozzles are heated 
automatically while the engine is running or the 
ignition is switched on.

Washer fluid

Washer fluid antifreeze is flammable. 
Therefore, keep it away from ignition 

sources and only store it in the closed original 
container that is kept out of reach of children, 
otherwise there is a risk of personal injury. 
Comply with the instructions on the con-
tainer.

<

Washer fluid filler neck

Only refill washer fluid when the engine is 
cool to avoid contact with hot engine 

parts. Otherwise, fluid spills constitute a fire 
hazard and a risk to personal safety.

<

All washer nozzles are supplied with washer 
fluid by the same reservoir.
Fill with water and, if required, with a washer 
antifreeze, according to manufacturer's recom-
mendations.

Mix the water and antifreeze before filling 
the washer fluid reservoir to make sure 

the correct concentration is maintained.

<

Capacity

Approx. 4.8 US quarts/4.5 liters.

Cruise control

The concept

Cruise control is available for use at speeds of 
approx. 20 mph or 30 km/h. The car then stores 
and maintains the speed that you specify using 
the lever on the steering column.

Do not use cruise control when driving at 
constant speed is prevented by adverse 

conditions, e.g. winding roads, dense traffic or 
poor road conditions due to, e.g. snow, rain, ice 
or loose surfaces. Otherwise you could lose 
control of the vehicle and cause an accident as a 
result.
