Contamination of either the windshield or
the blades with foreign matter can reduce
wiper effectiveness. Common sources are
insects, tree sap, and hot wax treatments
used by some commercial car washes.
If the blades are not wiping properly,
clean the window and blades with a good
cleaner or mild detergent; then rinse
thoroughly with clean water. Repeat if
necessary.

Replacing Windshield Wiper
Blades
When the wipers no longer clean well, the
blades are probably worn or cracked.
Replace them.
1. Raise the wiper arm and turn the blade
assembly to expose the plastic locking
clip.
Compress the clip and slide the
assembly downward; then lift it off the
arm.
Wiper Blades
•Hot waxes applied by automatic car
washers have been known to affect
the cleanability of windows.
• To prevent damage to the wiper
blades, don
’t use gasoline,
kerosene, paint thinner, or other
solvents on or near them.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the wiper arms
and other components, don ’t move the
wipers by hand.
To prevent damage to the windshield,
don ’t let the wiper arm fall on it.
CAUTION

Aluminum Wheel Maintenance
A protective coating is provided over the
aluminum wheels. Special care is needed
to protect this coating.

Convertible Top Maintenance
The convertible top is made of a special
high-grade material, but if it
’s not taken
good care of, hardening, staining, and loss
of luster will result. Maintain it under
these guidelines.
Wa s h i n g
Don ’t wait until the top gets really dirty
before cleaning it. Dirt that ’s there too
long will cause deterioration.
1. Before washing, remove dust and coarse particulate with a soft brush.
2. Gently clean the top with a synthetic neutral detergent, lots of water, and a
soft brush.
3. Rinse it thoroughly with clean water to remove all the soap.
4. Wipe it as dry as you can before the water dries on it.
5. Then allow it to dry completely before lowering it.
NOTE
•Don
’t use a wire brush or any
abrasive cleaner, polishing
compound, or solvent on aluminum
wheels. They may damage the
coating.
• Only use a mild soap or neutral
detergent and always use a sponge
or soft cloth to clean the wheels.
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm or
cold water. Also, be sure to clean
the wheels after driving on dusty or
salted roads. This helps prevent
corrosion.
• Avoid washing your vehicle in an
automatic car wash that uses high-
speed or hard brushes.
• If your aluminum wheels lose
luster, wax the wheels.
•Automatic and high-pressure car
washes are harmful to a convertible
top. Avoid them.
• Don
’t spray water directly on the
area where the window glass and
the top meet. This would probably
cause water to enter the cabin.

Cleaning the Window Interiors

the rear window. You may damage the
rear window defroster grid.
