When handling washer fluid, observe the
important safety notes on service products
(Y page 318).
Mixing ratio
Add windshield washer concentrate to the
washer fluid all year round. Adapt the mixing
ratio to the ambient temperature.
At temperatures above freezing:
X
Fill up the washer fluid reservoir with a mix-
ture of water and windshield washer con-
centrate, e.g. Summerwash to prevent
smearing.
At temperatures below freezing:
X
Fill up the washer fluid reservoir with a mix-
ture of water and windshield washer con-
centrate, e.g. Winterwash if there is a dan-
ger of frost.
This prevents washer fluid from freezing on
the windshield.

General notes
!
Observe the information on the maximum
loading capacity of the individual cargo tie-
down points.
If you use several cargo tie-down points to
secure a load, you must always take the
maximum loading capacity of the weakest
cargo tie-down point into account.
If you brake hard, for example, the forces
acting could be up to several times the
weight force of the load. Always use multi-
ple cargo tie-down points in order to dis-
tribute the force absorption. Load the
anchorages evenly.
You will find further information about cargo
tie down points and cargo tie-down rings in
the "Transporting" section (Y page 242).
