Always switch off the windscreen wipers
and ignition before changing the wiper
blades.
! Never open the service cover or tailgate if
a wiper arm has been folded away from the
windscreen or rear window. Never fold a
wiper arm without a wiper blade back onto
the windscreen or rear window. Hold the
wiper arm firmly when you change the
wiper blade. If you release the wiper arm
without a wiper blade and it falls onto the
window, the window may be damaged by
the force of the impact.
