Default Rear Camera Washer?

I stumbled upon a menu that had a rear camera washer button option on it. I pressed the MMI button and sure enough some washer fluid squirted at the rear camera (there is a small post next to the camera that it shoots out off).

However, for the life of me, I am unable to find it again.

When I had the cameras on screen, I am pretty sure pressed the 3 dots in the lower right and it came up with settings and scrolled down to find this button, but I don't see it since?

This was a USA 2019 A6 C8 P+

Anyone else find this or tell me where it is located on their car now that I can't find it again?

I searched the manual to no avail.

Thanks.

Never mind, I found it. Pg 155 describes it, though not fully (I previously tried the parking aids menu too, but it's not there).

Car has to be in reverse, or the reverse camera has to be on screen (when I was trying it the 2nd time, the front camera was on).

Then it pops up in the settings menu (the menu activated by the 3 dots in the lower right screen)

On the Avant it squirts the camera washer when you use the rear window washer

Thanks John, I saw that with the Q5 also worked that way. Unfortunately the saloon doesn't have a rear wiper (though it could come in handy sometimes, and I believe a long while back some Japanese cars had it)

Thanks for chiming in and enjoy the A6 Avant!
