Note:
There is a maintenance position for re-
placing wiper blades.
With the ignition on and the engine
off, lower windscreen wiper stalk 1 fully
(position D). The wiper arms stop in a
position away from the bonnet (please
refer to the information on “Windscreen
wiper blades” in Section 5).
Efficiency of a wiper blade
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. How long they last depends
on you:
– it must remain clean: clean the blade and the screen regularly
with soapy water;
– do not use it when the screen is dry;
– free it from the screen when it has not been used for a long time.
Replace wiper blades as soon as
their performance starts to diminish:
Approximately every year (refer to
the information on “Wiper blades” in
section 5).
Precautions for using the
wipers
– In freezing or snowy weather, clear the screen before starting
the wipers (risk of motor over-
heating);
– ensure that no objects are ob- structing the travel of the blade.

information on “Starting and stop-
ping the engine” in Section 2).
Special features of vehicles with

ditions prevent the system from using
the engine standby function, including
