Wiper function
Automatic activation of the rear window wiper
The rear window wiper is switched on automatically if the front windscreen wipers are switched
on and reverse gear is engaged. Automatic activation when reverse gear is engaged can be
activated and deactivated in the vehicle settings in the Infotainment system (→ Vehicle settings
menu, Operation).
Heated washer jets
The heating defrosts frozen washer jets. The heating output is automatically regulated when the
ignition is switched on, depending on the ambient temperature. Only the washer jets are heated
and not the hoses carrying washer fluid.
Headlight washer system
The headlight washer system cleans the headlight lenses and only works when the vehicle
lighting is switched on.
Once the ignition has been switched on, the headlights will also be washed the first time the
wash and wipe system is used, and every tenth time after this. Hardened dirt, such as insect
remains, should be removed from the headlight lenses at regular intervals.
In winter, you should remove any snow from the headlight washer system covers in the bumper
to keep the system in working order. Remove any ice with a de-icer spray.
