Wiper Blade CleaningWiper Blade Cleaning
─
Regularly inspect and clean wiper blade
edges and check the rubber for cracks,
breaks and roughness. If damaged, please
go to the local authorized service center to
replace the wiper blade.
─
Contaminants on the wiper blade may
reduce its performance. The contaminants
include ice, vehicle wash wax, cleaning
fluid containing bacteria and/or water
repellent, bird droppings, tree sap, and
other organic materials. Please follow the
instructions below for cleaning:
●
Use a non-abrasive glass cleaner to the
windshield.
●
Lift the wiper arm slightly from the
windshield to make it enough to get
close to the wiper blade, then use
isopropyl alcohol (rubbing) or wiper
cleaning uid to wipe the wiper blade
clean.
─
If the wiper blade is still ineffective after
cleaning, it may need to be replaced.
Caution
●
When lowering the wiper arm, be careful
to prevent it from falling and hitting the
windshield.
●
The surface of the wiper blade is coated
with a layer of graphite, which can
make the scraping smoothly without
scratching noise. Solvent-containing
cleaning agents, hard sponges and
sharp objects can damage the graphite
layer. A wiper with graphite layer
damaged will increase the scratching
noise, and should be replaced soon.
●
In winter or cold conditions, be sure to
check the wiper blade is not frozen with
the windshield before using the wiper.
If they're frozen together, clear the ice
firstly. Otherwise, the wiper blade and
wiper motor will be damaged.
