Parking the wipers?
Winter's coming so I've read the manual and tried to park the wipers vertically so I can lift them off the windshield. No luck... How do I do this?

Important that ignition should be off. Easiest for me is to actually start the vehicle, then press "start" button again to switch engine off; press again to switch ignition off; then press wiper stalk "upwards" (towards roof so to speak) and keep it there till wipers move vertically. To reverse - switch ignition on and push wiper stalk downwards (towards floor) Hope this helps.

Note: You have to do it pretty quick after switching the igition off. If you leave it minute you have to switch the ignition on and off again while in the drivers seat. Not good if you've started washing the car and done the interior first!

Thanks. I was following the instructions a bit too literally turning the ignition off but not turning the car off (2nd push). All I was doing was turning the wipers on fast. Got it now
