Wiper Maintenance and Blades
Replacement Windshield Wiper Arms Lifting
When the windshield wiper arms are
in rest position it is not possible to
check or replace the blades as they
remain under the engine hood.
To service the blades it is necessary to
move the wiper arms in “Service”
position (see chapter “Wipers and
Washers” in section “Understanding
the Vehicle”). In this way it is possible
to lift the arms for cleaning or
replacing the wiper blades.
WARNING!
It is dangerous to operate or service
the wiper blades with the windshield
wipers in an active position (any
position different from “OFF”) and
with the ignition switch in the RUN
position. The rain sensors may
suddenly activate the wipers. Always use the “Service” position for any
intervention on the windshield wiper
blades.
Windshield Wiper Maintenance
Life
expectancy of
wiper blades varies
depending on the geographical area’s
weather conditions where the car is
used and frequency of use. Poor
performance of blades may be present
with chattering, marks on the glass,
water lines or wet spots. If any of
these conditions are present, clean the
wiper blades or replace if necessary.
Clean the rubber edges of the wiper
blades and the windshield/rear
window glasses periodically with a
sponge or soft cloth and a mild
nonabrasive cleaner. This will remove
accumulations of salt or road film.
Operation of the wipers on dry glass
for long periods may cause
deterioration of the wiper blades.
Always use washer fluid when using
the wipers to remove salt or dirt from
a dry windshield.
Avoid using the wiper blades to
remove frost or ice from the
windshield. Keep the blade rubber out
of contact with petroleum products
such as engine oil, gasoline, etc. Spray nozzles
If the jet does not work, first check
that there is fluid in the tank (see
paragraph “Level checks” in this
section) then check that the nozzles
are not clogged.
Windshield Wiper Blades Replacement
• Move the wiper arms into “Service”
position, (see chapter “Windshield
Wipers and Washers” in section
“Understanding the Vehicle”) and
lift them.
• Press the indicated button, slip off
the blade support from the arm and
replace it.
• Return the blade to its original
position on the windshield.
• Turn the multifunction lever to one
of the automatic settings (see
chapter “Windshield Wipers and
Washers” in section “UnderstandingMaintenance and Care

The vehicle is equipped with an IBS
(Intelligent Battery Sensor) sensor able
to measure charging and discharging
currents and to calculate the state of
charge and state of health of the
battery. This sensor is located at the
negative post (-) of the battery.
For a successful charge/recharge
operation, the charging current must
flow through the IBS sensor as shown
in the picture. • Turn the charger on and follow the
instructions on its user manual to
completely recharge the battery.
• When the battery is recharged, turn
off the battery charger before
disconnecting it from the battery.
• Disconnect first the terminal clamp
of the charger black cable from the
battery and then the terminal clamp
of the red cable.
• Reassemble the protection cover on
the battery positive post and the
other parts removed for this
operation.
