position the wiper blade at right angles to the wiper arm
⇒ fig. 51.
– Press the securing spring in the direction of arrow and
press the wiper blade to the windscreen at the same time in
the direction of arrow ⇒ .
Attaching a wiper blade
– Push the wiper blade onto the wiper arm. The securing spring
must click into place audibly.
Windscreen wiper blades in proper condition are essential to obtain good
visibility. Wiper blades should not be allowed to become dirtied by dust,
insect remains and preserving wax.
Juddering or smearing of the wiper blades could then be due to wax resi-
dues left on the windscreen by vehicle washing in automatic vehicle wash
systems. It is therefore important to degrease the lips of the winscreen
wiper blades after every pass through an automatic vehicle wash
system.
WARNING
• If the windscreen wipers are handled carelessly, there is a risk
of damage to the windscreen.
• You should clean the wiper blades regularly with a windscreen
cleaner in order to avoid any smears. Clean a wiper blade with a
sponge or cloth if it is very dirty, for example from insect residues.
• Replace the windscreen wiper blades once or twice a year for
safety reasons. We recommend having the windscreen wiper
blades purchased at a Škoda dealer.
