Wiper blades
The wiper blades sweep water away from the
windscreen and rear window. Together with
the washer fluid they clean the windows and
ensure visibility for driving.
The windscreen wiper blades must be in serv-
ice position when they are to be replaced.
Service position
Wiper blades in service position.
In order to make replacement possible, to
clean or lift the wiper blades (for scraping off
ice from the windscreen, for example), they
must be in service position.
IMPORTANT
Before placing the wiper blades in the
service position, make sure that they are
not frozen down.
