Washers

Controlling washers

Operation

  1. Move the wiper speed control switch to OFF/O position.

  2. Pull/push the lever to spray washer fluid on the windscreen.

  3. Run the wipers several times.

Warning

Do not use the washer in freezing temperatures without first warming the windscreen with the defrosters; the washer solution could freeze on the windscreen and obscure your vision.

Caution
  • To prevent possible damage to the washer pump, do not operate the washer when the fluid reservoir is empty.

  • To prevent possible damage to the wipers or windscreen, do not operate the wipers when the windscreen is dry.

  • To prevent damage to the wiper blades, do not use petrol, kerosene, paint thinner, or other solvents on or near them.

  • To prevent damage to the wiper arms and other components, do not attempt to move the wipers manually.

  • To prevent possible damage to the wipers and washer system, use anti-freezing washer fluids in the winter season or cold weather.
