Add windshield washer fluid concentrate
to the water all year round.
Adapt the mixing ratio to the outside tem-
perature. Use:
ț Summerwash to protect against
smearing at temperatures above freez-
ing.
ț Winterwash when there is a risk of frost
so that the water does not freeze onto
the windshield.
̈ Mix the windshield washer fluid in a
container and in the specified propor-
tions.
̈ Remove cap 3.
̈ Fill up the windshield washer fluid.
̈ Press cap 3 back on.
You should always wear eye protection and
gloves when you are adding brake fluid.
Only store brake fluid in its closed original
container and keep out of the reach of chil-
dren. Comply with safety regulations when
handling brake fluid.
Warning
G
If the boiling point of the brake fluid is too
low, vapor pockets may form in the brake
system when the brakes are applied hard
(e.g. when driving on long downhill stretch-
es). This has a detrimental effect on braking
efficiency, which could increase the stop-
ping distance. This increases the risk of an
accident.
Have the brake fluid replaced every
two years.
