WINDOW WASHER SYSTEM
The windshield washer reservoir
(Fig. 51) should always be filled with
window-washer fluid, top up the fluid
(see Appendix 1) through the hole
closed with the plug.
In warm it is allowed to use clear
water, and at sub-zero temperature
use only special window-washer flu-
ids (see Appendix 1).
ATTENTION!
At an ambient temperature of
0
0
C and below it is not allowed to
pour water into the windshield
and rear window washer reservoir
without special washer fluids
because of possible damage to
the washer pump.
Replacing wiper blades
To replace the wiper blades per-
form the following operations:
– pull up the wiper arm from the
windshield;
– turn the blade on the axis of
rotation, placing it approximately
perpendicular to the wiper arm pre-
liminarily unlocking the blade on the
arm (by pressing the adapter projec-
tion between the blade and the arm),
remove the blade from the arm.
Install the new blade in reverse
order.
ATTENTION!
1. To ensure good visibility
through the windshield keep the
wiper blades in perfect condition.
2. To avoid the blades defor-
mation you should regularly clean
the wiper blades with fluid from
the washer reservoir. When the
windows and the wiper blades are
severely contaminated, for exam-
ple, with remnants of insects
(adhering to the window), road
salt, elements of the road sur-
face, you should clean the win-
dow outer face and the blades
with a soft cloth using special
detergents. After cleaning wash
the window and the wiper blades
with clear water.
3. Given that the windshield
wipers are connected with the
traffic safety system, it is recom-
mended to replace the wiper
blades during constant vehicle
operation every six months.
