Checking the wiper blade
Periodically check and clean the wiping
edge of the wiper blade.
Check the blade rubber for cracks, splits
and roughness. If any damage, wear or
roughness is detected, replace
immediately to prevent damage to the
glass.
Clean the blade edge by wiping with a soft
cloth or sponge, using warm soapy water.
Replacing the wiper blade
Install only a replacement wiper blade that
is identical to the original specification.
1. Lift the wiper arm away from the
windshield.
2. Turn the blade at right angles to the
arm.
3. Depress the locking tab while sliding
the blade down the arm.
To install the new blade, position the new
assembly on the wiper arm and slide the
blade towards the hooked end of the arm
until it locks into place.
Windshield washer jets
The position of the washer jets are set
during vehicle manufacture and should
not need adjusting.
If necessary, use a needle to clear any
blockages from the nozzles, or to redirect
the spray towards the centre of the
windshield.
