Front windshield wiper blade
Blade inspection
CAUTION
1. Raise the wiper arm and turn the wiper
blade assembly to expose the plastic
locking clip.
✽
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the wiper
arms or other components, do not
attempt to move the wipers manual-
ly.
Commercial hot waxes applied by auto-
matic car washes have been known to
make the windshield difficult to clean.
CAUTION
Do not allow the wiper arm to fall
against the windshield, since it may
chip or crack the windshield.
Contamination of either the windshield or
the wiper blades with foreign matter can
reduce the effectiveness of the wind-
shield wipers. Common sources of con-
tamination are insects, tree sap, and hot
wax treatments used by some commer-
cial car washes. If the blades don’t wipe
properly, clean both the window and the
blades with a good cleaner or mild deter-
gent, and rinse thoroughly with clean
water.
CAUTION
The use of a non-specified wiper
blade could cause wiper malfunc-
tion and failure.
