Changing the rear window
wiper blade fig. 16
Proceed as follows:
– lift the rear window wiper arm A
off the glass and position the blade so
as to form a right angle with the arm;
– remove the pressure fitted blade B
following the arrow direction;
– fit the new blade in the opposite di-
rection and make sure it is properly
locked into place.SPRAY NOZZLES
If there is no jet of liquid, first make
sure that there is liquid in the reser-
voir (see “Checking fluid levels” in this
chapter).
Then make sure that the holes in the
nozzles are not clogged up. Use a pin
for this if necessary.HEADLIGHT
WASHERS
(where fitted) fig. 17
Regularly check that the nozzles are
intact and clean.
The headlight washers are automat-
ically switched on when the wind-
screen washer is operated and the
headlights are on.
