positioned by adjusting the angle of
the sprays using a small straight-
headed screwdriver.
The jets should be directed at
about a third of the height from the
top edge of the windscreen.HEADLIGHT WASHERS

cleanliness of nozzles at regular
intervals.
The headlight washers come on
automatically when the windscreen
washer is operated with the low
beams on.

wiper blades is a serious hazard,
because visibility is reduced in
bad weather conditions.
IMPORTANT

wiper with the blades lifted from
the windscreen.
