CAUTIONO After wiper blade replacement, return
the wiper arm to its original position.
Otherwise it may be damaged when the
engine hood is opened.
O Make sure the wiper blades contact the
glass, otherwise the arms may be dam-
aged from wind pressure.
O Worn windshield wiper blades can
damage the windshield and impair driver
vision.
CLEANING If your windshield is not clear after using
the windshield washer or if a wiper blade
chatters when running, wax or other ma-
terial may be on the blade or windshield.
Clean the outside of the windshield with a
washer solution or a mild detergent. Your
windshield is clean if beads do not form
when rinsing with clear water.
Clean the blade by wiping it with a cloth
soaked in a washer solution or a mild de- tergent. Then rinse the blade with clear
water. If your windshield is still not clear
after cleaning the blades and using the
wiper, replace the blades.

Two types of fuses are used. Type
q A
is
used in the fuse boxes in the engine com-
partment. Type
q B
is used in the passen-
ger compartment fuse box.
Type
q A
fuses are provided as spare
fuses. They are stored in the passenger
compartment fuse box.
Type
q A
fuses can be installed in the en-
gine compartment and passenger com-
partment fuse boxes. If a type
q A
fuse is used to replace a type
q B
fuse, the type
q A
fuse will not be level
with the fuse pocket as shown in the il-
lustration. This will not affect the perfor-
mance of the fuse. Make sure the fuse is
installed in the fuse box securely.
Type
q B
fuses cannot be installed in the
underhood fuse boxes. Only use type
q A
fuses in the underhood fuse boxes. ENGINE COMPARTMENT
CAUTION Never use a fuse of a higher or lower am-
perage rating than that specified on the fuse
box cover. This could damage the electrical
system or cause a fire.
If any electrical equipment does not oper-
ate, check for an open fuse.

ate and fuses are in good condition,
check the fusible links. If any of these
fusible links are melted, replace only with
genuine INFINITI parts. SDI1753
