Avoid using the wiper blades to remove frost or ice from
the windshield. Keep the blade rubber out of contact with
petroleum products such as engine oil, gasoline, etc.
NOTE: Life expectancy of wiper blades varies depending
on geographical area and frequency of use. Poor perfor-
mance of blades may be present with chattering, marks,
water lines or wet spots. If any of these conditions are
present, clean the wiper blades or replace as necessary.
Service Position Strategy
The service position allows the wiper blades to be placed in
a position that allows the wiper blades to be easily
changed.
To enable the Service Position Strategy, the wipers must be
in the Park position before placing the ignition in the
STOP/OFF position.
Service mode must be activated within two minutes after
the ignition is placed in the STOP/OFF position.
To have a correct activation of strategy, the Service Position
command (antipanic) must be active for at least half a
second.
At every valid activation of Service Position command, the
wiper blades are activated for 250 ms.
The Service Position command can be repeated several
times to bring the blades into the desired position, up to a
maximum of three times.
After three subsequent activations the strategy is disabled.
Function Deactivation:
The functionality is reset if:
• The ignition is turned to the MAR/RUN position.
• Number of subsequent activations is three.
• Two minutes timer has expired after turning the ignition
OFF.
NOTE: When turning the ignition ON, the blades will go
into the parking position.
