BLADES
Periodically clean the rubber part us-
ing special products; TUTELA PRO-
FESSIONAL SC 35 is recommended.
Replace the blades if the rubber edge
is deformed or worn. In all cases, it is
advisable to replace them approxi-
mately once a year.
A few simple precautions can reduce
the possibility of damage to the
blades:
❒ make sure that the rubber part is
not stuck to the windscreen at sub-
zero temperatures. Use an an-
tifreeze product to release it if re-
quired.
❒ remove the snow from the win-
dow: this will avoid overstressing
the electrical motor in addition to
protecting the blades;
❒ do not operate the windscreen and
rear window wipers on dry glass.
Driving with worn wiper
blades is a serious hazard,
because visibility is reduced in bad
weather.
WARNING
How to insert the blade:
❒ insert the pin C in the hole in the
middle of the blade B;
❒ refit the arm with the blade on the
windscreen.
