windscreen wipers.
f Make sure that the windscreen wipers are not
pulled out forwards when opening the engine
compartment lid.

arms remain in this position until the lid is
closed and the wiper system is switched off
and then on again.

Closing

sary, push the lid closed with the palm of your
hand in the area of the lock.
2. Check that the lid has correctly engaged in the
lock.
When the vehicle is in motion, a message will be
displayed on the multi-purpose display of the
instrument panel if the lid is not closed properly.
