Mercedes-Benz windshield washer switch location is as follows: 1. The Mercedes-Benz washer button is generally located on the control lever behind the right side of the steering wheel, which controls the wiper settings and washer operation. There may be slight variations between different models. 2. To activate the washer function, pull the wiper control lever toward the driver. Mercedes-Benz front and rear windshield wiper introduction: 1. Mercedes-Benz front windshield wiper and washer: Pull the wiper switch near the steering wheel side forward. If the action duration is short (within 0.5s), it only sprays water without wiping; for longer durations, it continuously sprays water while wiping at low speed, and automatically wipes three more times after releasing the switch before returning to the original position. Move the control lever up and down to operate the front windshield wiper. 2. Mercedes-Benz rear windshield wiper and washer: Turn the knob at the end of the wiper switch to the "ON" position to activate the rear wiper; turn it to "OFF" to stop. Rotate the switch knob to the rear washer position to simultaneously activate the rear wiper and washer. After spraying washer fluid, the wiper will operate 2 more times.
I've driven Mercedes-Benz cars for several years, and the windshield washer switch is usually located on the wiper stalk to the right of the steering wheel. A gentle pull activates the spray to clean the windshield. If you're driving newer models like the S-Class or E-Class, the layout is quite similar and very intuitive to operate—especially handy when rain obscures visibility; a quick spray instantly clears your view. Be mindful that nozzles may clog or washer fluid might run low. I recommend checking the reservoir monthly and using premium washer fluid regularly to prevent system corrosion, ensuring driving safety. Mercedes' thoughtful design makes daily driving more effortless, eliminating distractions from searching for controls. If the washer doesn't respond, avoid forcing the stalk—consult the manual first to troubleshoot. Overall, it delivers comfortable and efficient driving, with this positioning being exceptionally user-friendly.
