Windshield Wiper
Foreign matters on the windshield
and blade will reduce the
eectiveness of the wiper. If the
blade does not work properly, wipe
the windshield and the blade with
special or neutral washing fluid.
Flush with water thoroughly. If
necessary, repeat the above
operation. Do not wipe the
windshield with corrosive
substances or materials that cannot
be removed from the glass (e.g.
silicone).
The strips have a layer of graphite on
the surface for lubrication and
protection. It should be protected
from excessive wiping and undue
polishing.
Do not start the wiper when the
glass surface is dry. Park the vehicle
in a cool place as far as possible to
prevent exposure to high
temperature, which will accelerate
the aging and deformation of strips.
Remove foreign matters such as bird
droppings, dust and leaves from the
glass surface before starting the
wiper; otherwise, the service life of
strips will be reduced.
