OPER
WINDSCREEN WASHER SYSTEM
The filler opening of the container is
under the carpet on left hand side of
front footwell. The container holds about
3.5 litres. On vehicles with a headlight
washer the capacity is 6.5 litres.
On vehicles with rear window washer*
there is an additional container on the
right in the luggage compartment This
container holds about 1 litre.
To fill container
Lift carpet, open flap and unscrew cap.
Fill container to top with water and screw
cap on again. Switch ignition on and
check that washer is working.
It is advisable to add a window cleaner
solution (with anti-freeze additive in
win-
ter) to the water because plain water is
not usually sufficient to clean the glass
and headlight lenses quickly and tho-
roughly.
Adjusting washer jets
When vehicle is stationary, the water
should hit the windscreen at the follow-
ing points:
a = 490 mm c = 180 mm
b = 220 mm d = 350 mm
The water jet for the rear window should
hit the window in the centre of the wiped
area.
The jets can be adjusted with a needle.
The jets for the headlight washer sys-
tem*can only be adjusted with a special
tool.
When adjustment is necessary,
contact your V.A.G workshop.
