Removing and installing spray nozzle
holder - vehicles as of MY 09
Caution
The spray nozzles should not be pulled out by hand.
Depending on the version, the pulled out cylinder piston can
tilt during the return stroke.
It is not allowed to insert the cylinder piston by hand as this
results in damage to the lift cylinder for the headlamp cleaning
system.
A jammed piston in the cylinder becomes functional if it is ac‐
tivated by the system which is determined for this, i.e by water
pressure.
Only move out the spray nozzles by water or air pressure.
Removing
– Push out the spray nozzles by means of fluid pressure or com‐
pressed air and then collect (second mechanic is required).
Do not pull out by hand!
– Press off the catch -arrow A- using a small screwdriver and
push the spray nozzle holder -2- with the cover -1- out of the
lift cylinder -3-.
– If necessary, loosen the cover of the spray nozzles -1- from
the catches -arrows B- and remove.
Installing
Note
Catches on the spray nozzle are intended to push the cover for
the spray nozzle holder into the bumper as far as possible. If the
spray nozzle holder is pushed too far into the lift cylinder for spray
nozzles, the cover or the bumper can be deformed. If the spray
nozzle holder is pushed in a little, there is a gap between the cover
and the bumper.
– Clip cover onto the holder.
– Push the holder with cover into the lift cylinder for spray noz‐
zles until the cover is tightly fit on the bumper.
– After installing the holder bleed the headlamp cleaning system
