Before anything else, you need to lift the wiper arms into the service position. Without this step, you risk hitting the hood or damaging the mechanism.
💡 Useful tip – Service position (front):
To change the wipers, you need to put them in the service position. With the ignition on, but the engine off, push the wiper lever all the way down; the arms will lift vertically on the windshield, allowing you to remove them without hitting the hood.
According to the official Renault manual, the special front wipe position is activated as follows: with the engine off or on, lift the lever twice to position A (single wipe). The blades stop away from the hood. To return the blades to the lowered position, with the ignition on, make sure the wipers have folded onto the windshield, then move the lever to position A (single wipe).
