Using the windscreen wipers
Switching on the windscreen wipers
Please note
!
Do not operate the windscreen wipers
when the windscreen is dry, as this could
damage the wiper blades. Moreover, dust
that has collected on the windscreen can
scratch the glass if wiping takes place
when the windscreen is dry.
If it is necessary to switch on the wind-
screen wipers in dry weather conditions,
always operate them using washer fluid.
!
Vehicles with a rain sensor: if the wind-
screen becomes dirty in dry weather con-
ditions, the windscreen wipers may be
activated inadvertently. This could dam-
age the
windscreen wiper blades or scratch
the windscreen.
For this reason, you should always switch
off the windscreen wipers in dry weather.
!
Make sure that the windscreen wipers are
free of ice. Otherwise the wiper motor may
overheat.
Wiper blades are subject to wear and tear.
smart recommends replacing the wiper blades
twice a year. Worn or damaged wiper blades
cause smearing on the windscreen. On vehi-
cles with a rain sensor, malfunctions are then
possible.
