Windshield Blade Replacement; Brake Pad Bedding - Aston Martin DB 9 2013 Manual

Windshield Blade Replacement

To replace the windshield wiper blades the wiper arms must be set at
90° to the vehicle (A). Press and hold in buttons 2 and 6 on the
Infotainment keypad. Insert the vehicle key in the ignition control
and move to position 'II' (ignition ON). This will manoeuvre the wiper
blade arms to the 90° position. Return the vehicle key to position '0'.
Lift the wiper arm(s) up, press at point B and remove the worn wiper
blade(s). Install the new wiper blade(s) and lower the wiper arm(s).
After replacing the wiper blade either:
• Move the vehicle key back through to position 'II' to lower the
wiper arms. Return the vehicle key to position '0' or remove.
• Operate the wiper stalk - the wiper arms will complete the
request and then park.
Brake Pad Bedding-in
Warning: Track day use and high speed driving: For track use
or high speed driving new brake pads must be subject to specific
conditioning. Failure to correctly condition the pads may result
in greatly reduced brake performance. Contact your Aston
Martin Dealer.
Failure to bed-in new brake pads will result in reduced brake
performance and possible brake judder or squeal.
After the installation of new brake pads, brake performance will be
reduced, as the brake discs and pads need to be bedded-in. For the
first few hundred miles of new brake pad use, avoid excessive braking
(hard stops from high speed, alpine descents, etc.).
