CAUTIONS
You can use the service position in
winter to provide easier access to
the wiper blades for freeing them
from snow and ice. The windscreen
wipers will return to their normal position
as soon as you switch on the ignition so
make sure that you fully defrost the
windscreen before you switch on the
ignition.
Note: The windscreen wiper blades are
different lengths. See Technical
specifications (page 50). If you install
wiper blades of the wrong length, the rain
sensor may not work correctly.
Set the windscreen wipers in the service
position.
