Wiper blade replacement
Lift wiper arm. Press release lever
and detach wiper blade.
Properly functioning windscreen
wipers are essential for clear vision
and safe driving. Regularly check the
condition of the wiper blades.
Replace hard, brittle or cracked
blades or those that smear dirt on the
windscreen.
Foreign material on the windscreen or
wiper blades can reduce the
effectiveness of the wipers. If the
blades are not wiping properly, clean
both the windscreen and the blades
with a good cleaner or mild detergent.
Rinse them thoroughly with water.
Repeat the process, if necessary.
There is no way to remove traces of
silicone from glass. Therefore, never
apply polish with silicone to your
vehicle’s windscreen or you will get
streaks which will impair the driver’s
vision.
Do not use solvents, gasoline,
kerosene, or paint thinner to clean
wipers. These are harsh and can
damage the blades and painted
surfaces.
