Lift them before you park,
Window cleaner or metho in water one part in 6. Or turn on demister and have heat high, that will take a while.
Do not use warm or hot water, the windscreen can crack.

I don't know that you can lift them? They lift a small way, but not right up and stay there?

So how anyone prevent the wiper not to freeze and stuck to the windscreen?

The wipers need to be parked vertically. I forget how, but it's in the handbook. Same as you need to do to replace the wiper blades.

Service position just makes reaching them a bit easier doesn't it? You still can't lift them to stop touching the glass?

I think the intent from LR is if you need to stop your wipers freezing to the windshield, you should have sprung for the cold climate pack
