Precautions to observe when using wipers and
washers
E00507600014
●If the moving wipers become blocked by ice or other
deposits on the glass, the motor may burn out even if the
wiper switch is turned to OFF. If obstruction occurs, park
your vehicle in a safe place, turn off the ignition, and
clean the deposits from the glass so that the wipers operate
smoothly.
● Do not use the wipers when the glass is dry. They may
scratch the glass surface or the blades may prematurely
wear out.
● Before using the wipers in co ld weather, check that the
wiper blades are not frozen on to the glass. The motor may
burn out if the wipers are used with the blades frozen onto
the glass.
● Avoid using the washer continuously for more than 20
seconds. Do not operate the washer when the fluid reser-
voir is empty.
Otherwise, the motor may burn out.
● Periodically check the level of washer fluid in the reser-
voir and refill if required.
During cold weather, add a recommended washer solution
that will not freeze in the wash er reservoir. Failure to do
so could result in loss of washer function and frost dam-
age to the system components.

operate in conjunction with the demister. Refer to “Heated
