You can buy VW 501 14 standard brake uid

of children. Risk of poisoning!
NOTICE
Brake uid should not come into contact
with the vehicle paintwork, as it is abrasive.

Checking the level of the window
washer tank and relling it
Fig.196 In the engine compartment: blue
cap of the windscreen washer tank.
Check the water level in the windscreen
washer reservoir regularly and top up as re-
quired.
The window washer tank contains liquid deter-
gent for the windscreen and rear window.
There is a sieve in the ller neck of the washer
uid tank. When lling the tank, this sieve re-
tains large dirt particles so that they do not
reach the nozzles. Do not remove the sieve
except for cleaning. If the sieve is damaged or
not tted, these dirt particles could enter the
system during lling and clog the windscreen
washer nozzles.

The windscreen washer reservoir is marked
with the symbol on the cap.
●
Check if there is enough uid in the tank.
Plain water is not enough to clean the wind-
screen and headlights. We recommend that
you always add a product to the windscreen
washer uid.
