Warning!
G
For safety reasons, switch off wipers and
remove SmartKey from starter switch
(vehicles with KEYLESS-GO*: Make sure the
vehicle’s on-board electronics have
status 0 ) before replacing a wiper blade.
Otherwise the motor could suddenly turn on
and cause injury.
! Hold on to the wiper when folding the wiper
arm back. If released, the force of the impact
from the tensioning spring could crack the rear
window.
Do not allow the wiper arm to contact the rear
window glass without a wiper blade inserted.
Make sure the wiper blade is properly installed.
Improperly installed wiper blades may cause
rear window damage.
For your convenience, we recommend that you
have this work carried out by an authorized
