window is dry. By switching rear window intermittent wiping off and then back on, you can override this
feature and activate the rear window wiper immediately.
The intermittent wiping for the front windshield depends on the driving speed. The higher the
speed, the faster the wipers move.
If the wiper blades freeze to the windshield, loosen them carefully. Volkswagen recommends
using a deicing spray.

Wiper performance in different situations:
When the vehicle is not moving:
During automatic wipe/wash:
The wiper speed changes temporarily to the next lower
speed.

prevent the washer fluid odor from entering the vehicle
interior.

Speed-dependent interval control: The higher the vehicle
speed, the faster the wipers move.
Heated washer nozzles
The heating thaws frozen water nozzles, but not the fluid supply hoses. When the ignition is switched
on, the heat applied to the washer nozzles is automatically regulated depending on the outside air
temperature.
If there is something on the windshield, the wiper will try to wipe it away. If it continues to block
the wiper, the wiper will stop moving. Remove the obstacle and switch the wiper on again.
