NOTE
The windscreen may sustain damage if a wiper
falls onto it without the wiper blade fitted. There
is a risk of material damage. Hold the wiper
firmly when changing the wiper blade. Do not
fold in or switch on the wiper without a wiper
blade installed.

opened. There is a risk of material damage. Be‐
fore opening the bonnet, make sure that the
wipers with wiper blades fitted are in contact
