Italian clean up
Alfa is well known for making very sporty looking cars. In the case of the Giulietta, MiTo and Giulia, this means that the cars have striking lines with no visual distractions. This therefore means that things like wiper blade arms are recessed and hidden from site, making servicing them something of a chore.

It should be noted that this is a DIY fix and not the manufacturer recommended procedure as this will require a visit to your local dealership so that they can set the wiper arms into the service position with the service software and computer.
It may be a bit fiddlily but we'll teach you this quick shortcut!
You will need:
- Replacement wiper blades (these are Volvo specific and may only be available from a Volvo dealer in some areas)
- Soft cloth
Let's get it done:
1. Start on the drivers side, Lift the wiper arm slightly and insert the cloth between the wiperarm and bonnet
2. Depress the small button on the wiper blade and pull.
3. Wipe down the base of the windscreen to remove debris.
4. Insert the new blade and push until it clicks into place.
5. Repeat on the passenger side and then test the system with water.
