Windshield washer systemThe windshield washer reservoir contains
the cleaning fluid for the windscreen or
rear window. The reservoir is located at the front right of the engine compartment ⇒ fig. 158
.
The
filling level
of the container is 3 litres, 5.5 li
tres on vehicles which also have a
headlight washing system. Clear water is not sufficient to intensivel
y clean the windscreen
and headlights. We
therefore recommend using clean washing wa
ter together with the screen cleaner
from Škoda genuine accessorie
s (in winter additionally with antifreeze) which is
capable of removing stubborn dirt. Follow
the instructions for use on the packaging
when using screen cleaning products. You should always add antifreeze to the
cleaning water in wi
nter even if your
vehicle is fitted with heated windscreen washer nozzles*. It is also possible in exceptional cases to use methylated spirits when no screen cleaner with antifreeze is
available. The concentration
of methylated spirits must
not be more than 15 %. Please note, howeve
r, that the antifreeze protection at this
concentration is only adequate down to -5°C.
WARNING
Read and observe the warning notes
⇒page 160, “Working in the engine
compartment” before working in the engine compartment.
Caution
•
On no account should you add radiator
antifreeze or other additives to the
windscreen washer fluid.•
If the vehicle is fitted with headlight
cleaning system, you should only add
cleaning products which do not attack th
e polycarbonate coating of the headlights
to the windscreen washer fluid. Please contact your specialist garage, who will tell you which cleaning agent you can use.
