06 Maintenance and specifications Wiper blades and washer fluid Wiper blades The wipers will return to the normal position when the vehicle is started.

With the wipers in the service position, fold out the wiper arm from the windshield. Press the button on the wiper blade attachment and pull the wiper blade straight out, parallel with the wiper arm. Slide in the new wiper blade until it clicks into place. Check that the blade is securely in place. Service position 06 The wiper blades must be in the service (vertical) position for replacement or washing. 1. Switch off the ignition (ignition mode 0, see page 79) and keep the remote key in the ignition slot1. 2. Move the right steering wheel lever up and hold it for at least 1 second.
