107Lights and visibility
Release the lever. The washer system stops and the wipers con-
tinue until the end of the cycle.
Move the lever towards the steering wheel to switch off.
WARNING
A worn or dirty wiper blade will obstruct visibility and reduce safety.
Always note the corresponding warnings on ⇒ page 204.
CAUTION
In icy conditions, always check that the wiper blade is not frozen to the
glass before using the wiper for the first time. If you switch on the wiper
when the wiper blade is frozen to the glass, this could damage both the
wiper blade and the wiper motor.
Note
The rear window wiper will only work when the ignition is switched on.
Depending on the version of the model, when you engage reverse gear
and with the headlight wiper activated, the lamps are wiped.
Headlight washer*
The headlight washers clean the headlight lenses.
The headlight washers are activated automatically when the windscreen
washer is used and the windscreen wiper lever is pulled towards the steer-
ing wheel for at least 1.5 seconds – provided the dipped beam headlights
or main beams are switched on. Clean off stubborn dirt (insects, etc.) from
the headlights at regular intervals, for instance when filling the fuel tank.
Note
To ensure that the headlight washers work properly in winter, keep the
nozzle holders in the bumper free of snow and remove any ice with a de-icer
spray.
To remove water, the windscreen wipers will be activated from time to
time, the headlight wipers will be activated every three cycles.
