INSPECT Check    
DANGER Risk of injury caused by moving parts that can pinch, crush or, in extreme cases even sever extremities.  Always remove ignition key when working on windshield wiper mechanism. AS82.30-Z-0001-01A
NOTES Make sure when working on lifted wiper arms that they do not fall onto the windshield. Otherwise the windshield will be damaged    
1 Switch off ignition and remove the transmitter key from the EIS [EZS] control unit IMPORTANT On vehicles with Keyless Go, code 889:
Press Keyless Go start/stop button repeatedly until ignition is switched off. Remove transmitter key from vehicle and store it in a location beyond its transmission range (at least 2 m).
 
2 Check wiper blades, replace if necessary IMPORTANT For wear and damage.  
3 Check position of wiper arms in parked position on the basis of the markings (arrow C) in the windshield IMPORTANT The wiper blade ends must lie on the markings (arrow C) and may not be offset by more than 10 mm upwards or downwards.
IMPORTANT The distance from the outer marking to the A-pillar (A) is approx. 60 mm, the distance from the inner marking to the A-pillar (B) is approx. 510 mm.
IMPORTANT Excessive deviations may be caused by a damaged wiper linkage, incorrect positioning of the wiper arms on the linkage pins, or bent wiper arms. Replace damaged components, see: ↓
 
    Remove/install wiper system AR82.30-P-6400GZ

IMPORTANT On vehicles with Keyless Go, code 889:
Press Keyless Go start/stop button repeatedly until ignition is switched off. Remove transmitter key from vehicle and store it in a location beyond its transmission range (at least 2 m).
 
5 Manually move driver-side wiper arm (1) and passenger-side wiper arm (2) into upper reversing position. IMPORTANT Upper reversing position:
  • The distance from the upper end of the driver-side wiper blade to the driver-side A-pillar (D) is approx. 30 mm,
  • The distance from the upper end of the passenger-side wiper blade to the driver-side A-pillar (D) is approx. 460 mm,
 
HIGH PRESSURE TEST Measure     
6 Check angle of incidence of wiper arms to windshield IMPORTANT Select a suitable adjustment method on the basis of the result of the check. AR82.30-P-6000-01GZ
