Essuie-vitre / Lave-vitre avant (X87 - Renault)
Windscreen washer
With the ignition on, pull stalk 1 to-
wards you.
A brief pull will trigger a single sweep
of the wipers, in addition to the wind-
screen washer.
A longer pull triggers, as well as the
windscreen washer, continuous sweep-
ing until the end of the request, then
three return sweeps, then after a few
seconds, a fourth.
WINDSCREEN WASH, WIPE (2/2)
In freezing or snowy weather, ensure
they are not stuck to the windscreen
(including the central area located
behind the interior rear-view mirror)
and the rear screen before starting
the wipers (risk of motor overheat-
ing).
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. You are responsible for their
service life:
– they must remain clean: clean
the blades, windscreen and
rear screen regularly with soapy
water;
– do not use them when the wind-
screen or rear screen are dry;
– free them from the windscreen or
rear screen when they have not
been used for a long time.
In all cases, replace them as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency: ap-
proximately once a year.
Before using the windscreen wiper,
check that no objects are obstruct-
ing the travel of the blade.
Do not try to lift the wiper blades.
They cannot remain detached from
the windscreen. To replace the
blades, refer to Section 5: “Wiper
blades”.
When working in the engine
compartment, ensure that
the windscreen wiper stalk
is in position A (park).
Risk of injury.
Before any action involving
the windscreen (washing
the vehicle, de-icing, clean-
ing the windscreen, etc.)
return stalk 1 to position A (park).
Risk of injury and/or damage.
