IMPORTANT
Avoid activating the washer system when it is

INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS
Heated washer nozzles*
The washer nozzles are heated automatically in
cold weather to prevent the washer fluid from
freezing.
Headlamp washing*
To save fluid, the headlamps are washed auto-
matically at every fifth windscreen wash cycle.
Reduced washing
If only approx. 1 litre of washer fluid remains in
the reservoir and the message Washer fluid
Level too low, refill , together with the
symbol, is shown in the driver display, then the
supply of washer fluid to the headlamps is
switched off. This is in order to prioritise cleaning
the windscreen and the visibility through it.
