Wipers (replacing blades)
WINDSCREEN WIPER BLADES (1/2)
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. You are responsible for their
service life:
– clean the blades, windscreen and
rear screen regularly with soapy
water;
– do not use them when the wind-
screen or rear screen are dry;
– free them from the windscreen or
rear screen when they have not
been used for a long time.
– In frosty weather, make
sure that the wiper blades
are not stuck by ice (to
avoid the risk of the motor
overheating).
– Check the condition of the wiper
blades.
They should be replaced as soon
as they become less efficient: ap-
proximately once a year.
When changing the blade, when it
has been removed, do not let the
wiper arm fall against the window:
risk of breaking the window.
To refit
To refit the wiper blade 1, insert it in its
housing in the arm 2, then clip it until
you hear a click. Make sure that the
blade is correctly locked in position.
On vehicles equipped with the auto-
matic windscreen wiper function, raise
the windscreen wiper stalk: the wind-
screen wiper blades will settle down in
the bonnet.
