spected from time to time and cleaned to
remove accumulations of road film or other
debris. To clean the wiper blades and

mild soap or detergent and water. If the
wipers continue to streak or smear the
glass, replace them with genuine Hyundai
replacement parts or their equivalent.

This can result in more rapid wear of
the wiper blades and may scratch the
glass.
o Keep the blade rubber out of contact
with petroleum products such as en-
gine oil, gasoline, etc.
