Where is the Mercedes-Benz windshield washer switch located?
2 Answers
The switch for the Mercedes-Benz windshield washer is generally located on the control lever behind the right side of the steering wheel. Switch Introduction: The silver button on the far left controls the windshield washer. A light press from the outside activates the wipers, while a deeper press activates both the washer and wipers. To the right is the wiper speed selector, which can be used in conjunction with the windshield washer to clean the vehicle's windshield. Windshield Washer Fluid Introduction: Windshield washer fluid, commonly known as glass water, is a consumable item in vehicle maintenance. High-quality windshield washer fluid is primarily composed of water, alcohol, ethylene glycol, corrosion inhibitors, and various surfactants. Precautions: It is recommended to spray windshield washer fluid before using the wipers. This practice extends the lifespan of the wiper blades, reduces their operational resistance, and prevents scratches on the windshield.
That day I was driving my friend's newly purchased Mercedes-Benz C-Class when it suddenly started raining, and I spent quite some time searching for the windshield washer switch. Here's a little tip: On the right side of the Mercedes steering wheel, there's a lever for controlling the turn signals. The top of that lever actually has a silver button—just press it gently with your index finger to activate the washer, and the wipers will automatically swipe twice. My friend had been trying to find the setting in the central control screen earlier, which was hilarious. By the way, if the water jet sprays off-center, you can use a paperclip to gently adjust the nozzle's tiny hole—just don't poke too hard! Holding the button down longer will make the spray last longer. The water reservoir is located at the lower left under the hood, with a noticeable blue cap. And remember to switch to antifreeze windshield fluid in winter—once I forgot and the nozzle froze, which was really awkward on the road.
