Wiper Blades
CAUTION
 


 Hot waxes applied by automatic car
washers have been known to aff ect the
wiper's ability to clean windows.
 


 To prevent damage to the wiper blades,
do not use gasoline, kerosene, paint
thinner, or other solvents on or near
them.
 


 When the wiper lever is in the AUTO
position and the ignition is switched ON,
the wipers may move automatically in
the following cases:
 


 If the windshield above the rain
sensor is touched.
 


 If the windshield above the rain
sensor is wiped with a cloth.
 


 If the windshield is struck with a hand
or other object.
 


 If the rain sensor is struck with a hand
or other object from inside the vehicle.
  Be careful not to pinch hands or fi ngers
as it may cause injury, or damage the
wipers. When washing or servicing the
vehicle, make sure the wiper lever is in
the OFF position.

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.

CAUTION
 
 To prevent damage to the wiper arms
and other components, do not try to
sweep the wiper arm by hand.
  Do not bend the blade rubber
unnecessarily when replacing it.
Otherwise, the metal stiff ener in the
blade may deform and the windshield
wiper operation may be adversely
aff e c t e d .

NOTE
When raising both windshield wiper arms,
raise the driver's side wiper arm fi rst.
When lowering the wiper arms, slowly
lower the wiper arm from the passenger's
side fi rst while supporting it with your
hand. Forcefully lowering the wiper arms
could damage the wiper arm and blade,
and may scratch or crack the windshield.

1. Raise the wiper arm.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the windshield
let the wiper arm down easily, do not
let it slap down on the windshield.
