To reduce the risk of lime scale deposits on the
spray nozzles, use clean water with low amounts
of calc ium . Always add window cleaner to the wa­

anti-freezing agent should be added to the water
so that it does not freeze.

must be adjusted to the vehicle operating
conditions in the respective climate. A con­
cent ration that is too high can lead to vehi­
