Sequence of work
Pic. 3.11. Filling liquid into the tank: 1 - windshield washer reservoir; 2 - headlight washer reservoir
If the corresponding control lamp lights up on the instrument panel, this means that it is necessary to add fluid to the washer reservoir 1 (pic. 3.11), located in the engine compartment.
Pic. 3.12. Checking the liquid level in the rear window washer reservoir for Mercedes T-model
On a Mercedes T-model station wagon, the fluid level in the rear window washer reservoir is monitored (arrow, fig. 3.12).
In order for the tinted glass to retain its transparency, it is necessary to add a special detergent to the water. For this, Mercedes offers special concentrates 001986 19 71 10 and 000986 88 71.
Additionally, a letter is added to the designation «S» (summer) or «W» (winter). The concentrate must not be mixed with other detergents.
1. For better mixing, fill the tank first with concentrate and then with water.
2. Clean the windshield well.
