WIPER BLADE
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. How long they last depends
on you:
– clean the blades and the wind-screen regularly with soapy
water;
– do not use them when the wind- screen is dry;
– free them from the windscreen when they have not been used
for a long time.
– In freezing weather, make
sure that the wiper blades
are not stuck by ice (to
avoid the risk of the wiper
motor overheating).
– Keep an eye on the condition of
the blade.
Replace the wiper blades as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency:
approximately 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.Replacement
With the ignition on and the engine
stopped:
– lift windscreen wiper arm 2 as far as
it will go;
– pivot blade 1 until it is removed from
its hinge.
Refitting
To refit the wiper blade, clip the blade
onto its hinge. Make sure that the blade
is correctly locked in position.
