Windshield wipers and washer

NOTICE
To help prevent damage to the wiper blades and the wiper motor
when it is cold outside, always make sure that blades are not
frozen to the windshield before operating the wipers. Using the
windshield wiper service position can be helpful in cold weather
so the wipers do not freeze to the windshield ⇒  Windshield wip-

service position can be helpful in cold weather so the wipers do
not freeze to the windshield ⇒  Windshield wiper service posi-
tion.
If the ignition is switched off while the wipers are running, the
wipers will continue at the same wiping speed when the ignition
is switched on again. Frost, ice, snow, leaves, and other objects
on the windshield can damage the wipers and the wiper motor.
Remove snow and ice from the wipers before you begin driv-
ing.
If the wiper blades freeze to the windshield, loosen them care-
fully. Volkswagen recommends using a deicing spray.
NOTICE
Never switch on the windshield wipers when the windshield is
dry because the windshield can be scratched.
The windshield wipers work only if the ignition is switched on and
the engine hood is closed. The windshield wipers turn off automatical-
ly when the engine hood is opened.
The intermittent wiping for the front windshield depends on the
driving speed. The higher the speed, the faster the wipers move.
If the wiper blades freeze to the windshield, loosen them careful-
ly. Volkswagen recommends using a deicing spray.
