Wiper blades: replacement

Replacing the windscreen wiper blades 2

To replace the wipers, first put them in the service position B.
With the ignition on and the engine stopped:
  • move the stalk 1 twice in succession to position A (single sweep): the wiper blades will stop in the service position B away from the bonnet;
  • lift the wiper arm 3;
  • lower the tab 4 and remove the blade 2.

Refitting

To refit the wiper blade 2, insert it into its housing in the arm 3, then clip it until you hear a click. Make sure that the blade is correctly locked in position.
To return the blades to the lowered position, make sure that the blades are folded down onto the windscreen then set the stalk 1 to position A (single sweep): the windscreen wiper blades will fold into the bonnet when the ignition is switched on.
Tip
Check the condition of the wiper blades. You are responsible for their service life:
  • clean the blades, windscreen and rear screen regularly with soapy water;
  • do not use them when the windscreen or rear screen is dry;
  • free them from the windscreen or rear screen when they have not been used for a long time.
