The windscreen wash jets are incorporated into the tip of each wiper arm.Screenwash fluid is sprayed along the length of the wiper blade. This improves visibility and reduces screenwash fluid consumption.In some cases, depending on the contents or colour of the fluid and on the exterior brightness, the liquid spray may be barely noticeable.
WARNI NG
To avoid damaging the wiper blades, do not operate the windscreen washer if the windscreen washer reservoir is empty.Only operate the windscreen washer if there is no risk of the fluid freezing on the windscreen and hindering visibility. Always use windscreen washer fluid suitable for low temperatures during the winter period.
