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 windscreen or rear screen is dry;
  • free them from the windscreen or rear screen when they have not been used for a long time.
warning
  • 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.

Replace the wiper blades as soon as they begin to lose efficiency (approximately once a year).

Whilst changing the blade, take care not to drop the arm onto the window after it has been removed as this may break the window.
