G
Risk of accident
The windscreen will not longer be wiped prop-
erly if the wiper blades are worn. This could
prevent you from observing the traffic condi-
tions, thereby causing an accident .Replace
the wiper blades twice a year, ideally in spring
and autumn.
! Do not operate the windscreen wipers
when the windscreen is dry, as this could
damage the wiper blades. Moreover, dirt
that has collected on the windscreen can
scratch the glass if wiping takes place when
the windscreen is dry.
! If the windscreen wipers leave smears on
the windscreen after the vehicle has been
washed in an automatic car wash, this may
be due to wax or other residue. Clean the
windscreen with washer fluid after an auto-
matic car wash. Combination switch

off. Otherwise, impaired visibility could
endanger you and others.
The rear window heating has ahigh current
draw. You should therefore switch it off as

switches off automatically after several
minutes. If the battery voltage is too low, the rear win-
dow heating may switch off.

lighting.
When the battery is sufficiently charged,
the rear window heating is activated again
automatically. Activating/deactivating air-recircula-
tion mode
You can deactivate the flow of fresh air if
unpleasan todours are entering the vehicle
from outside. The air already inside the vehi-
cle will then be recirculated.
The operation of the air-recirculation mode is
the same for all contro lpanels. G
Ris
kofa ccident
Only switch ove rto air-recirculation mode
briefly at low outside temperatures. Other-
wise, the windows could mist up, thus impair-
ing visibility and endangering yourself and
others. This may prevent you from observing
the traffic conditions, thereby causing an
accident.
