How to Lift Up the X-Trail Wiper Blades?
2 Answers
Here's how to lift up the X-Trail wiper blades: 1. Within 10 seconds after turning off the engine or power, pull the wiper switch toward the steering wheel, and the wiper blades will automatically move to the middle of the windshield. 2. Then manually lift them up. After turning on the power, press the wiper switch once to reset them. Below is some relevant information about wiper blades: 1. If there are other stubborn or hard contaminants on the glass, they should be cleaned manually. These substances can easily damage the wiper blades, resulting in poor wiping performance. In severe cases, the wiper motor may also be affected. 2. When lifting the wiper blades during car washing or routine cleaning, hold the "backbone" of the wiper blades and gently return them. Do not snap the blades back abruptly.
I remember changing the wiper blades on my X-Trail was quite convenient, and getting the wipers to stand up was simple: first turn off the engine, remove the key or keep it in the OFF position, then pull the wiper control lever to the wash position (the direction for spraying water) within ten seconds, and the wipers will move to the middle of the windshield. Now you can easily lift the wiper arms for cleaning or replacement. This method protects the glass from scratches and prevents damage to the wiper motor, especially useful before washing the car in winter to avoid freezing and jamming. I recommend checking the rubber wiper blades monthly and replacing them if worn out to ensure clear visibility for safe driving. I used to neglect this small step, leading to squeaky wipers that affected driving. Remember not to adjust them with the engine running to avoid malfunctions.
