WARNING
Without an adequate amount of anti-freeze, the washer fluid can freeze on the windscreen and

In winter temperatures, use the windscreen washer system only when adequate anti-freeze has
been added to the washer fluid.
Never use the windscreen washer system at winter temperatures before the windscreen has been
heated by the ventilation system. The anti-freeze mixture may otherwise freeze on the windscreen
and restrict vision.

Worn or dirty wiper blades reduce visibility and increase the risk of accidents and serious injuries.
Always change wiper blades if they are damaged or worn and no longer clean the windows properly
