shield is dry.
•If it is necessary to switch on the wipers in
dry weather conditions, always operate them
using washer fluid.
•If the windshield wipers leave smears on the
windshield after the vehicle has been
washed in an automatic car wash, this may
be due to wax or other residue. Clean the
windshield with washer fluid after an auto-
matic car wash.
