CHECKING THE WIPER BLADES
Run the tip of your fingers over the edge of the blade
to check for roughness.
Clean the wiper blades with washer fluid or water
applied with a soft sponge or cloth.
CHANGING THE WIPER BLADES
Note:Use the service position in winter to provide easier access to the
front wiper blades for freeing them from snow and ice. The front wipers
will not return to their normal position as soon as you switch on the
ignition. The front wipers will stay in the service position when you
switch the ignition on or start the engine. Switch on the front wipers to
any mode, then switch off the front wipers to bring the front wipers back
to the park position.
Note:The windshield wiper blades are different in length. If you install
wiper blades of the wrong length, the wipers may not work correctly.
If equipped with autowipers, the rain sensor may not work correctly.

REPAIRING MINOR PAINT DAMAGE
Your authorized dealer has touch-up paint to match your vehicle’s color.
Take your color code (printed on a sticker in the driver’s door jamb) to
your authorized dealer to make sure you get the correct color.
•Remove particles, such as bird droppings, tree sap, insect deposits, tar
spots, road salt and industrial fallout, before repairing paint chips.
•Always read the instructions before using the products.
CLEANING THE ENGINE
WARNING:Exposure to high voltage may result in severe
personal injury or death. High voltage components must be
serviced by a trained service technician.
Engines are more efficient when they are clean because grease and dirt
buildup keep the engine warmer than normal.
When washing, always power-down the vehicle and wait five minutes
before touching any electrical components. Observe the following:
•Use a dry cloth to remove excess dirt that collects on the electrical
components or in the charge port.
•Cover the inverter system controller, power distribution box, and air
filter assembly to prevent water damage when cleaning the engine.
•Never use a power washer to clean the engine or in the charge port.
The high-pressure fluid could penetrate the sealed parts and cause
damage and risk of personal injury.
•Never spray water on any of the orange colored components because
these components use high voltage. Never wash or rinse any ignition
coil, spark plug wire or spark plug well, or the area in and around
these locations. Water ingress can damage electrical components and
connections.
•Do not spray a hot engine with cold water to avoid cracking the
engine block or other engine components.
•Never wash or rinse the engine while it is hot or running; water in the
running engine may cause internal damage.
•Spray Motorcraft® Engine Shampoo and Degreaser on all parts that
require cleaning and rinse clean. In Canada, use Motorcraft® Engine
Shampoo.
