CLEANING

If your windshield is not clear after using the

windshield washer or if a wiper blade chatters

when running, wax or other material may be on

the blade or windshield.
Clean the outside of the windshield with a washer

solution or a mild detergent. Your windshield is

clean if beads do not form when rinsing with clear

water.
Clean each blade by wiping it with a cloth soaked

in a washer solution or a mild detergent. Then

rinse the blades with clear water. If your wind-

shield is still not clear after cleaning the blades

and using the wiper, replace the blades.

CAUTION

Worn windshield wiper blades can dam-

age the windshield and impair driver

vision.

REPLACING

Replace the wiper blades if they are worn.

1. Lift the wiper arm away from the windshield.

2

Push the release tab, then move the wiper

blade down the wiper arm to remove.

3

Remove the wiper blade.

4. Insert the new wiper blade onto the wiper

arm until it clicks into place.

5. Rotate wiper blade so the dimple is in the

groove.

6. Return the wiper to its original position and

release it until it has made contact with the

windshield.

CAUTION

After wiper blade replacement, return

the wiper arm to its original position;

otherwise it may be damaged when the

hood is opened.

Make sure the wiper blades contact the

glass; otherwise the arms may be dam-

aged from wind pressure.
