Blade inspection
Contamination of either the wind-
screen or the wiper blades with for-
eign matter can reduce the effective-
ness of the windscreen wipers.
Common sources of contamination
are insects, tree sap, and hot wax
treatments used by some commer-
cial car washes. If the blades are not
wiping properly, clean both the win-
dow and the blades with a good
cleaner or mild detergent, and rinse
thoroughly with clean water. To prevent damage to the wiper
blades, arms or other compo-
nents, do not:
Use petrol, kerosene, paint thin-
ner, or other solvents on or near
them.
Attempt to move the wipers manually.
Use non-specified wiper blades.
Information
Commercial hot waxes applied by auto-
matic car washes have been known to
make the windscreen difficult to clean.
Information
Wiper blades are consumable item.
Normal wear of the wipers may not be
covered by your vehicle warranty.
Blade replacement
When the wipers no longer clean
adequately, the blades may be worn
or cracked, and require replacement.
To prevent damage to the wiper arms
or other components, do not attempt
to move the wipers manually.
The use of a non-specified wiper
blade could result in wiper mal-
function and failure.
In order to prevent damage to the bonnet and the wiper arms,
the wiper arms should only be
lifted when in the top wiping
position.
Always return the wiper arms to the windscreen before driving.

When you do not use the vehicle
for a long time in a low tempera-
ture area, disconnect the battery
and keep it indoors.
Always charge the battery fully to prevent battery case damage
in low temperature areas.
If you connect unauthorised elec-

NOTICE
NOTICE
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH to you or bystanders,
always follow these precautions
when working near or handling
the battery: Always read and follow
instructions carefully
when handling a battery.Wear eye protection
designed to protect the
eyes from acid splashes.
Keep all flames, sparks,
or smoking materials
away from the battery.
Hydrogen is always present in battery cells,
is highly combustible,
and may explode if ignit-
ed.
Keep batteries out of
reach of children.
WARNING Batteries contain sulphric acid which is
highly corrosive. Do not
allow acid to contact
your eyes, skin or cloth-
ing.
If acid gets into your eyes, flush
your eyes with clean water for at
least 15 minutes and get imme-
diate medical attention. If acid
gets on your skin, thoroughly
wash the area. If you feel pain or
a burning sensation, get med-
ical attention immediately.
When lifting a plastic-cased
battery, excessive pressure
on the case may cause battery
acid to leak. Lift with a battery
carrier or with your hands on
opposite corners.
Do not attempt to jump start
your vehicle if your battery is
frozen.
NEVER attempt to recharge
the battery when the vehicle’s
battery cables are connected
to the battery.

Battery recharging
By battery charger
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes dischargedover a short time (because, for
example, the headlights or interior
lights were left on whilst the vehicle
was not in use), recharge it by slow
charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
If the battery gradually discharges because of high electrical load
whilst the vehicle is being used,
recharge it at 20-30A for two hours.
