Do not switch on the ignition when the front windscreen wiper arms are fol-
■
ded down - there is the danger of damaging the bonnet by the windscreen
wiper arms.
If there is an obstacle on the windscreen, the wipers will try to push away
■
the obstacle five times. Thereafter, the wipers will stop to prevent them be-
coming damaged. Turn on the wipers again only after the obstacle has been
removed.
Note
Each time the ignition switches off for the third time, the position of the
■
windscreen wipers changes. This counteracts an early fatigue of the wiper rub-
bers.
The windscreen washer nozzles for the windscreen are heated when the en-
■
gine is running and the outside temperature is less than +10 °C.
