vehicle moves again, the wipers return
to the initially selected speed. Any
operation of lever 1 fig. 81 takes
precedence and annuls any
automatism.

accessible when the starter device is
on. Position B and D fig. 81 are
accessible with the engine started.
NOTE There is a service position for
replacing the wiper blades. With the

in a position away from the bonnet (see
the "Windscreen wipers" paragraph in
the "Maintenance and care" chapter).
