WIPER
2
Windscreen washer
With the ignition on, pull the stalk
1
then release.
A longer pull will trigger, in addition
to the windscreen washer, two
sweeps of the wipers followed, a few
seconds later, by a third.
On vehicles fitted with a multimedia
screen, you can choose to activate
or deactivate the third sweep of the
blades 🡺130.
Note: in temperatures below zero,
the washer liquid may freeze on the
windscreen, reducing visibility. Heat
the windscreen using the demister
control before cleaning.
When working in the
engine compartment,
ensure that the wind-
screen wiper stalk is in
position
B
(stop).
Risk of injury.
Efficiency of a wiper
blade
Check the condition of
the wiper blades. How long they
last depends on you:
– it must remain clean: clean
the blade and the screen regu-
larly with soapy water;
– do not use it when the screen
is dry;
– free it from the screen when it
has not been used for a long
time.
In all cases, replace it as soon as
it begins to lose efficiency: ap-
proximately once a year 🡺360.
Precaution for using the wipers
– In freezing or snowy condi-
tions, clear the screen before
starting the wipers (risk of mo-
tor overheating);
– ensure that no objects are ob-
structing the travel of the blade.
