Automatic wiping/washing for the windscreen
The wash system operates immediately, the windscreen wipers wipe some-
what later. The wash system and the windscreen wiper operate simultaneous-
ly at a speed of more than 120 km/h.
Letting go of the operating lever will cause the windscreen wash system to
stop and the wipers to continue for another 2-3 wiper strokes (depending on
the spraying duration).
At a speed of more than 2 km/h, the wiper wipes once again 5 seconds after
the last wiper stroke in order to wipe the last drops from the windscreen. This
function can be activated/deactivated by a specialist garage.

Winter setting of the windscreen wiper
If the windscreen wipers are in rest position, they cannot be folded out from
the windscreen. For this reason we recommend adjusting the windscreen wip-
ers in winter so that they can be folded out from the windscreen easily.

Headlight cleaning system
Read and observe
After the ignition is switched on, the headlights are always cleaned at the first
and after every tenth spray of the windscreen (setting
page 82), when the low beam or main beam is switched on.
You should manually remove stubborn dirt (such as insect residues) from the
headlight lenses at regular intervals, for example after refuelling. The follow-
ing guidelines must be observed
.
To ensure the proper operation of the cleaning system during the winter, any
snow should be removed from the washer nozzle fixtures and ice should be
cleared with a de-icing spray.
CAUTION
Never remove the nozzles from the headlight cleaning system by hand – risk of
damage!
Note
The headlamp cleaning system works with an ambient temperature of about
-12 ° C to + 39 ° C.
