Hi art,
I mentioned this problem to the dealer, he said that to be able to lift the wipers you have toopen the bonnet up!!!!!!

WHAT?


All you need to do is turn the ignition on. Do a single swipe with the wipers and turn the ignition on when they get to the top! Simple!!!!!

it all seems to be an over sight on behalf of ford...not being able to lift the windscreen wipers because of the bonnet is stupid.....as jss says you can do it by putting into service position, but what happens when you get those lovely flyers poked under the wipers when you are parked....not the best of answers from ford

It was the same on my old Octavia but if you did a wipe after the engine had been turned off, it left them at 90 degrees.
