switch.
3. Set the remote control key in ignition posi-
tion II, see page 81.
4. Turn the remote control key to key position
0 and keep the remote control key in the
ignition switch.5. Move the right-hand stalk switch up for
about 1 second. The wipers then move to
standing straight up.
The wipers return to the starting position when
the car is started.

located on the wiper blade mounting and
pull straight out parallel with the wiper arm.

NOTE
The wiper blades are different lengths. The
blade on the driver's side is longer than the
blade on the passenger side.
CleaningFor cleaning wiper blades and windscreen, see
page 336 and onwards.
IMPORTANT
Check the wiper blades regularly.
Neglected maintenance shortens the serv-
ice life of the wiper blades.
Filling washer fluid
The windscreen and headlamp washers share
a common reservoir.
IMPORTANT
Add washer antifreeze during the winter so
that the fluid does not freeze in the pump,
reservoir and hoses.
For capacities, see page 352.
