66 Lights and Visibility
Attaching a wiper blade
– Push the wiper blade until it locks up to the stop.
– Check whether the wiper blade is correctly attached.
– Fold the windscreen wiper arm back onto the windscreen.
The wiper arms move back into the rest position - after switching on the ignition and
after changing the position of the window wiper lever or when driving at a speed
greater than 6°km/h.
Wiper blades in proper condition are essential to obtain good visibility. Wiper blades
should not be allowed to become dirtied by dust, insect remains and preserving wax.
Juddering or smearing of the wiper blades could then be due to wax residues left on
the windscreen by vehicle washing in automatic vehicle wash systems. It is therefore
important to degrease the lips of the wiper blades after every pass through an auto-
matic vehicle wash system.
WARNING

If the windscreen wipers are handled carelessly, there is a risk of damage to
the windscreen.

You should clean the wiper blades regularly with a windscreen cleaner in
order to avoid any smears. Clean a wiper blade with a sponge or cloth if it is very
dirty, for example from insect residues.

Replace the wiper blades once or twice a year for safety reasons. The wiper
blades are available from specialist garages.
