1 Clean windshield and headlamps*
Do not use the washers if there is
any danger that the fluid will
freeze on the windshield, as your vision
could be obscured. Always use a wind-
shield washer antifreeze in cold
weather. Refer to page 132.
Do not use the washers when the reser-
voir is empty. This could cause damage
to the washer pump.<
The system sprays washer fluid against
the windshield and activates the wipers
for a brief period.
When the vehicle's lighting system is
switched on, the headlamps will also be
cleaned at reasonable intervals.
Windshield washer nozzles
The windshield washer nozzles are
heated automatically* when the ignition
key is in position 2.
Cruise control*
Starting at about 20 mph / 30 km/h, you
can maintain and store any vehicle
speed that you specify.
The cruise control is operational when-
ever the engine is running and the sys-
tem has been activated.
To activate the system
In ignition key position 2: press the but-
ton in the steering wheel. The indicator
lamp in the instrument cluster comes
on, refer to page 20. You can now use
the cruise control.
Do not use cruise control on twist-
ing roads, when high traffic den-
sity prevents driving at a constant
speed, or when the road surface is slick
– snow, rain, ice – or loose – rocks or
gravel, sand.<
To deactivate the system
Press button as often as you need to
until the indicator lamp in the instru-
ment cluster goes out.
