Service position
Use the service position to change the wiper blades.
You can set the wipers to the service position on the sound
system or MMI*.
– If the wiper blades are not frozen to the windscreen,
move the windscreen wiper lever to the "off" position
⇒ page 62, fig. 63.
– Select: Function selector button > Windscreen
wipers > Service position ⇒ fig. 64.
• on - the wiper blades can only be replaced when the wiper arms
are in the service position ⇒ fig. 65. If you only work on the wipers
when they are in the service position you will also avoid damaging
the paintwork on the bonnet.
• off - the windscreen wipers will be moved back to their original
position.
Caution
Never move the vehicle with the front wiper arms in a raised posi-
tion as they are automatically moved back to their normal park posi-
tion above a speed of 6 km/h. The paintwork on the bonnet may be
damaged as a result.
Note
• You can also use the service position, for example, if you want to
fix a cover over the windscreen in the winter to keep it clear of ice.
• The service position is automatically set to off when you operate
the windscreen wiper lever or the road speed exceeds 6 km/h.
Changing wiper blades
Good wiper blades are essential for clear vision.
Taking off the wiper blade
