WARNING

Without adequate frost protection, the washer fluid could freeze on the windscreen and obscure your view of the road.

In winter temperatures, use the windscreen washer system only when it has adequate frost protection.

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.

WARNING

Worn or dirty windscreen wiper blades reduce visibility and increase the risk of accidents and severe injuries.

Therefore, always change windscreen wiper blades if they are damaged or worn and no longer clean the windscreen properly.

NOTICE

In icy conditions, always check that the wiper blades are not frozen to the glass before using the wipers. When parking the vehicle in cold weather, the service position for the front windscreen wipers may be helpful .
