than the one on the passenger side.
Service position
Wiper blades in service position
The wiper blades must be in the vertical (serv-
ice) position for replacement, washing or to lift
them away from the windshield when e.g.,
removing ice or snow. To put them in this posi-
tion:
1. While sitting in the driver's seat, close the
driver's door.
2.
Insert the remote key in the ignition slot
1
3.
Put the ignition in mode II (see page 86).4.
With the remote key in the ignition slot
1, put
the ignition in mode 0.
5. Move the right steering wheel lever up and
hold it for at least 1 second. The wipers will
then move to the vertical (service) position
on the windshield.
The wipers can be returned to the normal posi-
tion by briefly switching on the ignition (or by
starting the engine).
Replacing the windshield wiper blades
With the wipers in the service position, fold
out the wiper arm from the windshield.
Press the button on the wiper blade attach-
ment 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.
1Not necessary on vehicles with the optional keyless drive.
