Washers
The reservoir capacity is approx. 6 qts.
(5.8 liters).
When the washer fluid level drops below
1 quart (1 liter), the headlight washers (if
equipped) are deactivated. This is in order
to prioritize the windshield. The following
message is displayed on the SID:
Headlight washers are only available on
certain markets.
Fill with a mixture of washer fluid and water
as recommended by the table on
the packaging to reduce the risk of freezing
and to ensure effective cleaning (see also
page 104).
Washer jets
The washer jets, which are adjustable, can
be cleaned with a pin if necessary.
WARNING
Take care not to spill washer fluid concen-
trate onto hot surfaces. Washer fluid con-
centrate can contain flammable ingredi-
ents such as alcohol.
Washer fluid level low.
Refill.
