Headlight washer?

Ok, so I have had this R55 S for a week now and I can NOT figure out how to run these washers? Is there a button? Does it do it on it's own? Sorry for the dumb question. I was even at the dealer today and forgot to ask. Thanks gang.

if you have the headlight washers, they run automatically every third play of the windshield washers.

Thank you so much! Ok that makes sense. Does this drain the washer fluid reserve faster, or does it come from a diffrent reserve?

yes, but if you have headlamp washers, you get a bigger reservoir than a standard Mini.

You'll get wet if your headlights are on, you wash the windows and the headlight washer cycle is triggered if you also have the windows down!
