Special position of the windscreen wipers
In the minute following switching off of the ignition, any action on the stalk positions the wipers vertically.
This action enables you to position the wiper blades for winter parking, cleaning or replacement without damaging the bonnet.
To park the wipers after this has been done, switch on the ignition and operate the stalk.
For optimum and lasting wiping of the "fl at-blade" wiper blades, it is advisable to:
- handle them with care,
- clean them regularly using
soapy water,
- change them approximately
every 6 months,
- avoid using them to retain
cardboard on the windscreen.
