Default How to put raise wipers in 2012 Q5

How do you raise wipers in 2012 Q5? Without going into computer and setting the service mode. People are saying to turn off the engine, and push down on the single wipe control, but it doesn't work for me. Is this only for +2013 Models?

The only way I know how is to put the wipers in "service mode". Could you try opening the hood to get access to them instead?

Door must be closed, and don't open the door before you push down for the single wipe after engine turn off.

I could also be a 2013+ function only.........
