1 Control for windshield wipers and windshield washers
The windshield wipers are electrical and can be set to two speeds by pulling out the
control. If pulled out to the first notch, the wipers run at half speed, and if pulled out
two notches, they run at full speed. When the control is pushed in the whole way, the
windshield wipers automatically stop in their parked position.
Turning the control nob in a clockwise direction operates the windshield washers.
The windshield washers can be used even when the windshield wipers are switched
off. The fluid container for the windshield washers is located under the hood and
contains about one litre.
Never let the windshield wipers run on a dry and dusty surface since this can easily
scratch the glass.
