How can I check to see if the Head Light Washers are working?The manual says that when the lighting system is switched on,the headlamps are cleaned at regular and appropriate intervals.I have never sean any signs of fluid or dirt being moved around the head lights.TIA

They only work in conjunction with the windshield washers.
If your car has them and if you wash your windshield with the lights on a couple of times, you're sure to notice the spray from the headlights...

Rudy is right.
The make a wash/spray cycle once on the 5th time you use the windshield washers. ( lights on ).

I think they are only a part of the cold weather package here in the US. I can't believe I didn't get that package... I just overlooked it when I was at the dealership. Once you have heated seats, it's tough to get used to NOT having heated seats.
