Note
♦ Genuine washer fluid ⇒ ETKA prevents the spray jets, wash‐
er fluid reservoirs and connecting hoses from freezing.
♦ In vehicles with fan jets, the reservoir must be filled with
Genuine washer fluid, as this fluid has a low viscosity at tem‐
peratures below freezing. Otherwise the complicated spray
jet system can become blocked by the crystallised washer
fluid, which affects the spray pattern of the spray jet. Genu‐
ine washer fluid ensures that the fan jets remain fully func‐
tional at low temperatures.
♦ Genuine washer fluid ⇒ ETKA can also be used in the sum‐
mer. The powerful cleanser easily removes wax and oil resi‐
due from the glass.
♦ Anti-freeze protection must be guaranteed to approx. -25°C
(approx. -35°C in countries with an arctic climate) in the
windscreen wash/wipe system.
