Windshield wipers smear
If the windshield wipers smear the windshield, even 
during rain, activate the washer system as often as 
necessary. The fluid in the washer reservoir should be 
mixed in the correct ratio.
Note:
For windshield and headlamp washer fluid mixing ratio 
see page 259.
Blocked windshield wipers
If the windshield wipers become blocked (for example, 
due to snow), switch off the wipers.
For safety reasons before removing ice or snow, remove 
key from steering lock. Remove blockage.
Activate windshield wiper/washer switch again (key in 
steering lock position 1).
