Wiper blades (replacing the blade)

Replacing the front wiper blades 1

• With the ignition off, lift the wiper arm 2;
• turn the blade 1.

Press the tab 3 down, pressing on each side A.

Then push the blade forward B until the tab 4 releases.

Fitting the blade

To fit the blade, carry out the above steps in reverse order.

Check that the wiper blade is locked in place.

Check the condition of the wiper blades regularly. Their service life depends on use:

• clean the blades and the front and rear windscreen regularly with water containing a little soap;
• do not use them when the front or rear windscreen is dry;
• lift them off the front or rear windscreen when they have not been used for a long time.

Before replacing a wiper blade, make sure the lever is in the park (off) position.

Fitting the blade

To fit the blade, carry out the above steps in reverse order.

Check that the wiper blade is locked in place.

• In freezing conditions, make sure the wiper blades are not held fast by frost on the windscreen (risk of damaging the wiper motor mechanism).
• Check the condition of the wiper blades regularly.

  Replace them as soon as their effectiveness decreases: on average once a year.

When replacing a blade, while it is removed, take care that the wiper arm does not drop back onto the glass: risk of breaking the windscreen.
