Maintaining optimal visibility is a non-negotiable aspect of safe driving, and it all begins with effective wiper blades. Zeekr vehicles, with their cutting-edge design and advanced engineering, feature wipers that are seamlessly integrated for aerodynamics and a sleek aesthetic. To facilitate easy maintenance without compromising this design, your Zeekr is equipped with an electronic Wiper Service Mode.
This feature gently raises the wiper arms to a vertical position, providing ample room to lift them fully away from the windshield for cleaning or blade replacement. The process is simple but specific, ensuring the mechanism is protected.
Here’s your step-by-step guide to activating Wiper Service Mode on your Zeekr.
Activating Wiper Service Mode
-
Power Down Completely:
Ensure the vehicle is in the OFF state. This means the electrical system is not active, and you are not in a drive-ready mode. -
Initiate the Sequence:
Within 15 seconds of powering the vehicle off, press and hold the MIST button on the end of the wiper control stalk. Continue to hold it for approximately 2 seconds. -
Confirmation of Activation:
The wiper arms will automatically perform a single sweep and then park in the upright, vertical service position on the windshield.
Deactivating Wiper Service Mode
To return the wipers to their standard parked position, simply power the vehicle back ON. The wipers will automatically lower to their resting place.
Crucial Safety Warning: The official Zeekr manual emphasizes that you must never manually lift the wiper arms without first activating the electronic service mode. Forcing them away from the windshield can cause serious damage to the wiper motor and linkage. Always let the vehicle’s system move the wipers into the upright position for you first.
This intelligent feature exemplifies the thoughtful engineering behind your Zeekr, blending stunning design with practical, user-friendly functionality. By following these simple steps, you can ensure your wiper blades are always in top condition, keeping your vision clear and your driving experience safe.
Maintain your Zeekr with confidence and enjoy the journey ahead.
