Cleaning windscreen, headlights and
BMW Night Vision camera*
Fluid from the washer reservoir is sprayed on to
the windscreen and the wipers are operated for
a short time.
When the vehicle lighting is switched on, the
headlights and the BMW Night Vision camera
are cleaned together with the headlights at
appropriate intervals.
Only operate the washer systems and
cleaning equipment if you are certain that
the fluid will not freeze on the windscreen and
interfere with the view ahead. Washer fluid con-
taining antifreeze should therefore be added to
the fluid, see Washer fluid.
Do not use the washer systems if the fluid res-
ervoir is empty, or the washer pump will be
damaged.<
