Washer fluid is sprayed onto the windshield and
the wipers are operated for a short time.
When the vehicle lighting system is switched
on, the headlamps are cleaned at regular and
appropriate intervals.

Do not use the washers if there is any
danger that the fluid will freeze on the

windshield. If you do, your vision could be
obscured. Antifreeze should therefore be
added to the fluid, refer to Washer fluid.
Do not use the washers when the washer fluid
reservoir is empty; otherwise, you will damage
the washer pump.

Windshield washer nozzles

The windshield washer nozzles are heated
automatically while the engine is running or the
ignition is switched on.

Washer fluid

Washer fluid antifreeze is flammable.
Therefore, keep it away from ignition

sources and only store it in the closed original
container that is kept out of reach of children;
otherwise, there is a risk of personal injury.
Comply with the instructions on the con-
tainer.

Washer fluid filler neck

Only refill washer fluid when the engine is
cool to avoid contact with hot engine

parts. Otherwise, fluid spills constitute a fire
hazard and a risk to personal safety.

All washer nozzles are supplied with washer
fluid by the same reservoir.
Fill with water and, if required, with a washer
antifreeze, according to manufacturer's recom-
mendations.

Mix the water and antifreeze before filling
the washer fluid reservoir to make sure

the correct concentration is maintained.

Capacity

Approx. 6.3 US quarts/6 liters.

Cruise control*

The concept

Cruise control is available for use at speeds of
approx. 20 mph or 30 km/h. The car then stores
and maintains the speed that you specify using
the lever on the steering column. In order to
maintain the specified speed, the system
brakes the vehicle when the engine braking
effect is insufficient on downhill gradients.

Do not use cruise control when driving at
constant speed is prevented by adverse

conditions, e.g., winding roads, dense traffic,
poor visibility or unfavorable road conditions
due to, e.g., snow, rain, ice or loose surfaces.
Otherwise, you could lose control of the vehicle
and cause an accident as a result.

Manual transmission

You can shift gears while cruise control is acti-
vated. An indicator lamp notifies you that you
should shift gears when you drive for an
extended period at very high or very low engine
speeds, or the system is deactivated.
