Washing The Headlamps And Windows; Washing The Windscreen; High-Pressure Headlamp Washing; Wiper – Reversing - Volvo XC60 Owner's Manual

IMPORTANT
The windscreen wipers could start and be
damaged in an automatic car wash. Deac-
tivate the rain sensor while the car is running
or the remote control key is in position I or
II. The symbol in the combined instrument
panel and the lamp in the button go out.

Washing the headlamps and windows

Washing function.

Washing the windscreen

Move the stalk switch toward the steering
wheel to start the windscreen and headlamp
washers.
2 This function (intermittent wiping when reversing) can be deactivated. Contact an authorised Volvo workshop.
The windscreen wipers will make several more
sweeps once the stalk switch has been
released. The headlamps are washed alter-
nately to prevent light intensity being reduced.
NOTE
One headlamp is washed at a time.
Heated washer nozzles*
The washer nozzles are heated automatically
in cold weather to prevent the washer fluid
freezing solid.

High-pressure headlamp washing*

High-pressure headlamp washing consumes a
large quantity of washer fluid. To save fluid, the
headlamps are washed automatically at every
fifth windscreen wash cycle.
