Interval wipe for the rear window.
The wiper will wipe the window approx-
imately every 6 seconds.
H
Wash and wipe system for cleaning
the rear window with the lever pushed.
The wipers function only when the ignition

WARNING
Without adequate anti-freeze, the washer
fluid may freeze onto the windscreen and
obscure your view.
·
In winter temperatures, the windscreen
washer system should only be used
when adequate frost protection has
been added.
·
In winter temperatures, never use the
windscreen washer system before the
windscreen has been heated by the
ventilation system or the windscreen
heating. This could lead to the anti-
freeze mixture freezing on the wind-
screen and restrict the driver’s vision.
WARNING
Worn or dirty wiper blades reduce visibility
and increase the risk of accidents and se-
vere injuries.
·
Always change wiper blades if they are
damaged or worn and no longer clean
the windscreen properly

NOTICE
Incorrect handling of the wipers can lead to
damage to the windscreen and wiper
blades and also to the wiper motor.
·
Before starting your journey and switch-
ing on the ignition, check to make sure
that the wiper lever is in its basic position.
·
Remove snow and ice from the wipers
and windows.
·
Always carefully loosen wiper blades
that have become frozen onto the win-
dow.
NOTICE
Do not use the wipers when the window is
dry. Using the wipers when the window is
dry can damage the glass.
·
Do not switch on the wipers when the
window is dry.
When switched on, the wipers will
temporarily be switched to the next
setting down when the vehicle is station-
ary.
If the vehicle is parked during cold
weather, the service position of the
windscreen wipers may be helpful in order
to be able to release the wiper blades bet-
ter from the windscreen
