Windscreen wipers and washers
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Operate wiper and washer
50
The windscreen wipers and the windscreen washer system only operate if the
ignition is switched on.
WARNING
■
Properly maintained windscreen wiper blades are essential for clear visi-
bility and safe driving » page 132.
■
Do not use the windscreen washer system at low temperatures, without
heating the windscreen beforehand. The window washer fluid could other-
wise freeze on the windscreen and restrict the view to the front.
CAUTION
■
In cold temperatures and during the winter, check before switching on the
ignition that the wiper blades are not frozen to the windscreen. If the wind-
screen wipers are switched on when the blades are frozen to the windscreen,
this may damage both the blades and windscreen wiper motor!
■
Carefully peel frozen wiper blades off the pane.
■
Remove snow and ice from the windscreen wipers before driving.
■
If the windscreen wipers are handled carelessly, there is a risk of damage to
the windscreen.
■
Do not switch on the ignition if the front wiper arms are retracted. The wiper
arms could damage the paint of the bonnet.
■
If there is an obstacle on the windscreen, the wiper will try to push away the
obstacle. If the obstacle continues to block the wiper, the wiper stops in order
to avoid damaging the wiper. Remove the obstacle and switch the wiper on
again.
Note
To avoid streaking, the wiper blades must be kept clean » page 98.

  • I bought my 2016 Skoda Citigo two months ago and can't find out why it will suddenly ping for no obvious reason, some times pining three or four time in a row. My partner noticed the numbers 1-5 with an arrow coming up on the right hand side of the odometer but we can't find out what they or the mysterious pinging is. Please can you help. Thank you Submitted on 15-9-2022 at 10:11
