Maintenance and Care
Wiper Blades
Contamination of either the windshield or the blades with for-
eign 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 thor-
oughly with clean water. Repeat if necessary.
WARNING
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 vehi-
cle.
Be careful not to pinch hands or fingers 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.
NOTICE
● Hot waxes applied by automatic car washers have been known to affect
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.
