Operation Manual

WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW
WIPER
BLADES
Periodically clean the rubber part using special
products; TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 is
recommended.
Replace the blades if the rubber edge is deformed or
worn. In any case, it is advisable to replace them
approximately once a year.
A few simple precautions can reduce the possibility
of damage to the blades:
❒ if the temperature falls below zero, make sure that
ice has not frozen the rubber against the glass. Use
an antifreeze product to release it if required;
❒ remove any snow from the glass: in addition to
protecting the blades, this prevents effort on
the motor and over-heating;
❒ do not operate the windscreen and rear window
wipers on dry glass.
WARNING
Driving with worn wiper blades is a
serious hazard, because visibility is
reduced in bad weather.
CHANGING THE WINDSCREEN WIPER
BLADES
Proceed as follows:
❒ raise the windscreen wiper arm A fig. 142 and
position the blade so that it forms an angle of 90°
with the arm;
❒ press the button A and extract the blade C fig. 142
from the arm B fig. 142;
❒ insert the new blade making sure it is locked into
place.
