blades varies according to the usage
frequency. In any case, it is advisable to
replace the blades approximately once
a year. When the blades are worn,
noise, marks on the glass or streaks of
water may be noticed. In the presence
of these conditions, clean the wiper
blades or, if necessary, replace them.
IMPORTANT Driving with worn
windscreen/rear window wiper blades
is a serious hazard, because visibility is
reduced in bad weather.

Each time the function is activated
correctly, the wiper blades move to
signal the correct reception of the
command.
The command can be repeated up to a
maximum of the three times. The fourth
repetition of the command deactivates
the function.

device is set back to MAR with the
blades in a position other than rest
position (at the base of the windscreen),
they will only return to rest position
following a command given using the
stalk (stalk upwards, into unstable
position) or when a speed of 5 km/h is
exceeded.
Function deactivation
The function is deactivated if:
2 minutes have passed since the
ignition device was set to STOP;
the ignition device is set to MAR and
the blades are in rest position;
the command for the function is
repeated four times.
