the hood. To bring the wipers up into
their vertical position (important when
changing the blades, or folding up
when frost is expected):
With the lever in position 1, switch off
the ignition as soon as the wipers come
to a stop.
For changing the wiper blades, refer to

ignition key to position 1 or 2 again. If
you do not, they could be damaged.
