● Depending on the version of the model,
when you eng
age reverse gear and with the
headlight wiper activated, this can start a
wipe. Headlight washer*

The he
adlight washers are activated auto-
matically when the windscreen washer is
used and the window wiper lever is pulled to-
wards the steering wheel for at least 1.5 sec-
onds – provided the dipped beam headlights
or main beams are switched on. Clean off
stubborn dirt (insects, etc.) from the head-
lights at regular intervals, for instance when
filling the fuel tank. Note
● To ens ur
e that the headlight washers work
properly in winter, keep the nozzle holders in
the bumper free of snow and remove any ice
with a de-icer spray.
● To remove water, the windscreen wipers
will
be activated from time to time, the head-
light washers will be activated every three cy-
