2009 VOLKSWAGEN CC washer fluid

Wiper performance in different situations:
During automatic
wipe/wash:
While the washer system is working, the
Climatronic switches to recirculation for
about 30 seconds to help prevent the
washer fluid odor from entering the vehi-
cle interior.
During intermittent
wiping:
Speed-dependent interval control: The
higher the vehicle speed, the faster the
wipers move.

Heated washer nozzles
The heating thaws frozen washer nozzles, but not the fluid supply
hoses. When the ignition is switched on, the heat applied to the
washer nozzles is automatically regulated depending on the outside
air temperature.
Headlight washer system
The headlight washer system cleans the headlight glass.
If the ignition and the headlights (high or low beams) are switched on,
the headlights are cleaned the first time and every fifth time the front
windshield washers are activated. This happens only when the low or
high beams are on when the windshield wiper lever is pulled towards
the steering wheel. However, the headlights must still be washed by
hand periodically (for instance, during refueling) in order to get rid of
hard-to-remove dirt (like insect splatter).
To help make sure that the headlight cleaning system works during
winter weather, always keep the headlight washer nozzles free of
snow and remove any ice with a deicer spray before driving. Use a
deicer spray to remove any ice.
If there is something on the windshield, the wiper will try to wipe it
away. If it continues to block the wiper, the wiper will stop moving.
Remove the obstacle and switch the wiper on again.

To remove wax and coats of polish safely, we recommend using
an alcohol-based windshield cleaner.

Recommended cleaners
For the warmer months, Windscreen Clear SummerG 052 184 A1
or equivalent. Mixing ratio 1:100 (1 part concentrate to 100 parts wa-
ter) in the windshield washer reservoir.
All-season Windscreen ClearG 052 164 A2 or equivalent. Mixing
ratio in winter to 0 °F (-18 °C) about 1:2 (1 part concentrate to 2 parts
water), otherwise, mixing ratio 1:4 in the windshield washer reservoir.
Filling capacity
The windshield washer fluid reservoir holds about 3.1 qts. (3 liters); in
vehicles with a headlight cleaning system about 6.3 qts. (6 liters).
WARNING
Never mix antifreeze or similar additives into the windshield
washer reservoir. This could produce an oily film on the wind-
shield, which would considerably reduce visibility.
Use clear water with a cleaning solution recommended by
Volkswagen.
If necessary, blend with a suitable windshield washer fluid
antifreeze agent.
NOTICE
Never mix cleaning solutions recommended by Volkswagen
with other cleaning agents. If you do, this could cause sedi-
ments or other by-products that can clog the windshield washer
nozzles.
When refilling, do not confuse one type of operating liquid
with another! Otherwise serious malfunctions and engine dam-
age can occur!
