If the windshield wiper motor is to be run during the procedure, the front lid must be completely closed, otherwise the power supply to the wiper motor will be interrupted.

-- Make sure the wiper blades are not frozen if there is a risk for frost.

-- Switch the ignition on.

-- Activate the windshield wiper "on" menu item using the multimedia system control head. Refer to the Owner's Manual.

The windshield wipers run in the "service position".

-- Switch off the ignition.

CAUTION:

Risk of damaging the front lid by moving the windshield wipers back to the basic setting.

- Never maneuver a vehicle with the windshield wiper arms folded up.

TIP:

The windshield wipers move back into the home position at speeds of 6 km/h or above, or when the windshield wiper switch is operated.
