Windscreen Wiper/wash Delay

Just got my (to me) new MY11 AB and noticed that the screen washers only squirt after 1 full stroke of the blades.
The manual states not to use wipers on a dry screen - design issue or a fault requiring a dealer visit? Now - MY11 RRS Autobiography TDV6, Orkney gray, tints, steps, daylight running lamps and allllll the toys!!!

MY10 here but wash triggers first before blades.

Wonder if there is a slight leak in the final section of tube and it's leaking away between use? Is it any different if you try it several times in rapid succession?

Just had a 2 hour drive and its just as you say, supacat, repeated use and no issue. Will get the dealer to take a wee look.

I told them on delivery on Friday my work had a sweep for when it would be back in - told him I had Wednesday, and he didnt look too happy - maybe I tempted fate!!! Now - MY11 RRS Autobiography TDV6, Orkney gray, tints, steps, daylight running lamps and allllll the toys!!!

Thanks T&C AS - YOU were the happy one!!

Anyway the sweep isnt as good as winning that car - Im sure there is a clause in the Road Traffic Act about driving distracted - with a smile!! Now - MY11 RRS Autobiography TDV6, Orkney gray, tints, steps, daylight running lamps and allllll the toys!!!
