Vertical position of the windscreen wipers

This position allows the wipers to be raised to the winter rest position, cleaned or replaced without damaging the bonnet.

Within one minute of switching off the ignition, each use of the wiper control lever sets the wipers to the vertical position.

After positioning the wipers on the windscreen, switch on the ignition and move the lever.

To ensure that the flat-blade wipers work for a long time and effectively, we recommend:
  • handle them carefully,
  • clean them regularly with soapy water,
  • do not place cardboard under the windscreen wipers,
  • replace the wiper blades at the first signs of wear.
