Where is the windshield washer button on the Mercedes-Benz C260?
1 Answers
The silver button on the lever to the left of the steering wheel: a light press activates the wipers, while a firm deep press triggers the washer fluid spray along with the wipers. Introduction to windshield washer fluid: Windshield washer fluid, also known as wiper fluid, is a cleaning solution specifically designed for automobile windshields. It is primarily composed of water, alcohol, ethylene glycol, corrosion inhibitors, and various surfactants. Functions of windshield washer fluid: Cleaning: Formulated with multiple surfactants and additives, it provides wetting, penetration, solubilization, and dirt decomposition capabilities for effective cleaning and stain removal. Anti-freeze: The alcohol and ethylene glycol in the fluid lower the freezing point, preventing freezing and dissolving frost. Anti-fog: It forms a monomolecular protective film on the glass surface to prevent fog droplet formation, ensuring clear driving visibility. Anti-static: After cleaning, substances adhering to the glass surface neutralize static charges, offering anti-static properties. Lubrication: The ethylene glycol content increases viscosity, reducing friction between wipers and glass to prevent scratches and provide lubrication.
