Windscreen wipers and washers
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Operate wiper and washer 52
The windscreen wipers and the windscreen washer system only operate if the
ignition is switched on.
WARNING
■
Properly maintained windscreen wiper blades are essential for clear visi-
bility and safe driving » page 133.

Do not use the windscreen washer system at low temperatures, without
heating the windscreen beforehand. The window washer fluid could other-
wise freeze on the windscreen and restrict the view to the front.
CAUTION
■
In cold temperatures and during the winter, check before switching on the
ignition that the wiper blades are not frozen to the windscreen. If the wind-
screen wipers are switched on when the blades are frozen to the windscreen,
this may damage both the blades and windscreen wiper motor!
■
Carefully peel frozen wiper blades off the pane.
■
Remove snow and ice from the windscreen wipers before driving.
■
If the windscreen wipers are handled carelessly, there is a risk of damage to
the windscreen.
