2015 PEUGEOT 4C wiper fluid

Intermittent Wiper System
Use the intermittent wiper when weather conditions
make a single wiping cycle with a variable pause be-
tween cycles. Rotate the end of the multifunction lever to
the first detent position. There are four possible delay
intervals that depend on the vehicle speed.
Windshield Wiper Operation
Rotate the end of the lever upward, to the first detent past
the intermittent settings for low-speed wiper operation.
Rotate the end of the lever upward to the second detent
past the intermittent settings for high-speed wiper opera-
tion.
Mist
Use the mist feature when weather conditions make
occasional usage of the wipers necessary. Push the lever
upward to the mist position and release for a single
wiping cycle.NOTE:The mist feature does not activate the washer
pump; therefore, no washer fluid will be sprayed on the
windshield. The wash function must be used in order to
spray the windshield with washer fluid.
Windshield Washers
To use the washer, pull the lever toward you and hold
while spray is desired. If the lever is pulled while in the
delay range, the wiper will start and continue to operate
for three wipe cycles after the lever is released, and then
resume the intermittent interval previously selected.
If the lever is pulled while in the off position, the wipers
will operate for three wipe cycles and then turn off.

Wiper Blades
Clean the rubber edges of the wiper blades and the
windshield and rear window periodically with a sponge
or soft cloth and a mild nonabrasive cleaner. This will
remove accumulations of salt, waxes, or road film, and
help reduce streaking and smearing.
Operation of the wipers on dry glass for long periods
may cause deterioration of the wiper blades. Always use
washer fluid when using the wipers to remove salt or dirt
from a dry windshield or rear window.
Avoid using the wiper blades to remove frost or ice from
the windshield or rear window. Make sure that they are
not frozen to the glass before turning them on to avoid
damaging the blade. Keep the blade rubber out of contact
with petroleum products such as engine oil, gasoline, etc.NOTE:Life expectancy of wiper blades varies depending
on geographical area and frequency of use. Poor perfor-
mance of blades may be present with chattering, marks,
water lines or wet spots. If any of these conditions are
present, clean the wiper blades or replace as necessary.
Blade Lifting
If it is necessary to lift the blade from the windshield (In
the event of snow or blade replacement) Proceed as
directed:
1. Rotate the end of the multifunction lever to the OFF
position.
2. Turn the ignition to the MAR-ON position then to
STOP.

3. Push the wiper blade up the and remove it. 4. Install the wiper blade and firmly press the wiper
blade until it snaps into place.
Windshield Washer Nozzles
The windshield washer nozzles are adjustable. They
originally adjusted at the factory. Should it be necessary
to adjust them again, contact your authorized Alfa Ro-
meo Dealer.
If there is not jet of fluid, first check that there is fluid in
the washer reservoir. Refer to “Adding Washer Solvent”
in this section for further information.
Then check that the nozzle holes are not clogged; use a
suitable tool such as a needle to unblock them if neces-
sary.
