washer is used and the windscreen wiper lever is pulled towards the steering
wheel ⇒page 117, fig. 79 for at least 5 seconds – provided the dipped
headlights or main beams are switched on. Clean off stubborn dirt (insects,
etc.) from the headlights at regular intervals, for instance when filling the fuel
tank.
Note
To ensure that the headlight washers work properly in winter, keep the
nozzles in the bumper free of snow and remove any ice with a de-icer spray.
