lever to "OFF" and the ignition switch
to OFF position.
Shift the control lever within 15
seconds to the "MIST" position
(forward rotation of the end of the
multifunction control lever) and
release. The blades are brought in a
position enabling to open the wiper
arms and change the blades.
It is possible to use the "MIST"
position for a maximum of 3 times
within two minutes, corresponding to
different three blades positions on the
windshield. When completed, bring
the ignition switch in RUN: the arms
will reposition. If necessary move the
multifunction lever to other required
operating positions.
To change the wiper blade on rear
window of liftgate, simply lift the
wiper arm to detach it from window

"Maintenance Procedures" of section
"Maintenance and Care").
WARNING!
Operate or service the windshield
wiper blades without deactivating the
wipers ("OFF" position), leaving the
ignition switch in RUN can be
dangerous for the operator since the
rain sensor may suddenly activate the
wipers. Always use "Service" position

windshield wiper blades.
Windshield Washers and
Headlight Washers
To use the washer on the windshield,
push the end of the multifunction
lever inward (toward the steering
column) and hold it as long as washer
spray is desired.
If you activate the washer while the
windshield wiper control is in the
automatic intermittent range, the
wipers will operate for two wipe
cycles after releasing the lever and
then resume the previously-selected
intermittent interval.
Understanding the Vehicle
If you activate the washer while the
windshield wiper is turned off ("OFF"
position) the wipers will operate for
three wipe cycles and then turn off.
WARNING!
• Do not start the windshield washer
during the cold months until the
windshield has warmed up. If it has
not warmed up, the liquid could
freeze on the glass and block your
view.
• Sudden loss of visibility through the
windshield could lead to a collision.
You might not see other vehicles or
other obstacles. To avoid sudden
icing of the windshield during
freezing weather, warm the
windshield with the defroster
before and during windshield
