Adjusting the windshield wiper arms

Remove the windscreen wiper arms. Switch on the ignition. Press the "windscreen wiper button" and move the windscreen wiper motor to the end position.

It is necessary to use the end position in which the windscreen wiper motor goes directly to the end position, without lifting from the lower position. If necessary, press the "windscreen wiper button" again. Switch off the ignition.

Install the wiper arm with the blade installed on the axle and align the blade on the windshield as follows: distance "a" = 13+10 mm. Dimension "b" = 15 + 10 mm.
