To reduce the risk of lime scale deposits on the
spray nozzles, use clean water with low amounts
of calcium. Always add window cleaner to the wa-
ter. When the outside temperatures are cold, an
anti-freezing agent should be added to the water
so that it does not freeze.
Messages
The following messages may appear depending
on the vehicle equipment:
ElPlease add washer fluid
Fill the washer fluid for the windshield washer
system and the headlight washer system* when
the ignition is switched off.
~The concentration of anti-freezing agent
must be adjusted to the vehicle operating
conditions and the climate. A concentration
that is too high can lead to vehicle damage.

tives to the washer fluid.
= Do not use a glass cleaner that contains
paint solvents, because this could damage

nition is switched on or off, depending on the
vehicle equipment. The remaining distance or
time is displayed briefly.

has reached an inspection or oil change interval
or both intervals at the same time, the mes-
sage Inspection due! or Oil change due! or Oil
change and inspection due! appears briefly af-
ter switching the ignition on or off.

til the next oil change or next inspection in the
