To make reaching the wiper blades
easier, simply:
1. Turn the ignition to the ON
position and turn the wipers on.
2. Wait for the wipers to reach a
vertical position and turn the
ignition to LOCK.
• Do not move the wipers
manually across the windshield,
this may cause damage to both
wipers and windshield.
Inspect the wiper pivot arms on a
regular basis to ensure that they
move freely. Lubricate the pivot
points as necessary.
Replacing wiper blades
If the wiper blades do not function
properly after cleaning,
replacement of the blade assembly
or the blade element may be
necessary.
