REAR SCREEN WASHER, WIPER (2/2)
Do not use the wiper arm to open or

with soapy water;

– free it from the screen when it has not been used for a long time.
In all cases, replace it as soon as
it begins to lose efficiency: approx-
imately once a year. Refer to the
paragraph on “Wiper blades” in
Section 5.
Precaution for using the
wipers
– In freezing or snowy weather conditions, clear the screen
before starting the wipers (risk of
motor overheating);
