Cleaning
Keeping the windshield and wiper blades
clean helps improve visibility and prolongs
the service life of the wiper blades. Clean the
wiper blades with a stiff-bristle brush and
lukewarm soap solution or car washing deter-
gent.
NOTE
The windshield wiper blades are different
lengths. The blade on the driver’s side is
longer than the one on the passenger side.
