Caution
| Risk of damaging the bonnet when moving wipers back
into the park position. |

position when the wiper switch is operated or when speed
exceeds 6 km/h. |

| In the event of frost, check if wiper blades are
frozen. |

| If it is necessary for the wiper motor to run during the
working procedure, the bonnet must be closed completely, as
otherwise the power supply to the wiper motor will be
interrupted. |
