It's linked to the windshield washer... Every 3rd time or something like that the headlights will be sprayed as well. It's in the manual.

Do you have comfort access?

The headlight washer is activated automatically whenever you use the windshield washer but it doesn't occur each time. Seems like it functions about every 3rd for 4th time. If you have the Comfort Access (CA) option you can open and close the top and windows with the remote. If you don't have CA I am not sure if you can close the windows. On my 335d, I don't have CA, I can open the windows and sunroof with the remote but I cannot close them, something to do with safety concerns.

The headlight washers are activated only when the headlights are on. So if you keep the headlights on automatic, they fluid won't spray until the lights go on.
