How to use the wipers on the new Volkswagen Polo?

Instructions for using the wipers on the new Volkswagen Polo: Pushing the wiper lever forward or backward controls the front wipers, lifting it upward activates the front windshield washer, while pressing it downward controls the rear wiper. Pressing it down one notch turns on the rear wiper, and pressing it down further activates the rear window washer. If the rear wiper is continuously operating, lifting the lever upward once will turn it off. Here are some specific details about the wipers: 1. Wiper maintenance: Regular cleaning is required. Like other parts of the car, the wipers also need to be cleaned, and debris should be removed promptly. The front end of the wipers tends to accumulate debris, so regular inspection and cleaning are necessary. 2. Wiper speed settings: There are three speed settings: fast, medium, and slow. Observe the wiping speed of the wipers at each setting and check whether the wipers can maintain the same range of movement at different speeds.
I've been driving the Volkswagen New Polo, and the wiper switch is located on the right-hand steering column stalk. It's super easy to operate: pull the stalk once for intermittent wipe mode, and you can adjust the speed with the knob on the stalk head; push it up one notch for slow continuous wiping; push it two notches for fast wiping; pull the stalk down to spray water and wipe a few times, cleaning the windshield. On heavy rainy days, I use the fast mode, while for light rain, I adjust it to intermittent to save wear on the wiper blades. Remember not to let the wiper blades dry wipe, as it can damage both the glass and the wipers. Test the wipers before it rains to ensure they're working properly. When spraying water, make sure there's enough washer fluid. New cars might need original factory fluid to avoid clogging. Regularly check the wiper blades for cracks, and it's recommended to replace them every six months or so to extend their lifespan. Safety first—clear visibility is the most important thing for a more worry-free drive.
