Windscreen wiper blades
CAUTIONS
Set the windscreen wipers in the
service position to change the wiper
blades.
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 the outside of the
windscreen is free from snow and ice
before you switch on the ignition.

Note: The windscreen wiper blades are

wiper blades of the wrong length, the rain
sensor may not work correctly.
