Peugeot 208 - Video tutorial

Model: Peugeot 208 MK 1, A9 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Windscreen wipers
Operation: System to raise the wiper blades and put them in a straight position.

In case you would like to replace the wiper blades or, in case of snow, you would like to put the blades themselves in a straight position, these, in a Peugeot 208, are quite simple operations. The first operation to do is to start the car engine and, after a few seconds, we proceed to switch off the engine again. At this point it will be sufficient to lower the wiper control lever once and the wipers themselves will automatically position themselves in a vertical position. To bring them back to their usual rest position, just lower the wiper lever once again. This operation is possible up to 1 minute after the engine is switched off. After this time, just restart the engine and the wipers will return to their rest position.
