Headlamp washer not working

Help! I cannot get my headlamp washer to work. I have an '11 GL550, the manual says wash windscreen 5 times with the lights on and the headlamp washer will work. I haven't asked the dealer yet, anyone else have a problem with this? I see no evidence of washer fluid splashing up, I don't hear anything, and I see no fluid on the lens when I get out to inspect. Am I doing something wrong?

I think there is a separate button just for the headlamp washer.

It only engages after 10 uses of the washer fluid on the windows. The manual does not say that, but that is the case....
