I have tried putting my wipers in park so I can clean my car without the risk of damaging paint work I pulled the wiper stick towards me twice but nothing happened am I missing something

If you first don't succeed then try again and if necessary again - it works!
QuoteEDIT:Looked in USA manual and tried what it said and it works. Basically when ignition switch is on or within 60 secs of turning ignition off, push the lever to the upper position (mist position) twice within .5 secs and the wipers will go into service mode.PeterL2014-05-17 20:25:04

Dont pull lever towards you... lift it to upper position as far as it will go twice

We tried for ages to do it and in the end the Service Manager of Glyn Hopkins showed us how. You have to flick the lever twice really quickly (we were too slow) but we've got it now. Wiper damage now repaired so car should be as good as new.

Yep, 0.5 seconds and that's it!
