Wiper Blades
Check the wind shield wiper blad es at least tw ice a year. Also
check them whenever they seem less effective than usual. Such

and the wiper blad es. Use und iluted wind shield washer solu tion
or a mild detergent. Rinse thorou ghly with clear water. Do not
use fuel, kerosene, paint thinner, or other solvents to clean you r
wiper blad es. These will dam age you r blad es.
To make reaching the wiper blad es easy, sim ply tu rn the
ignition to the ACC position and tu rn you r wipers on. Wait for
them to reach a vertical position and tu rn the ignition to the
OFF position. Do not move the wipers manu ally. Manu ally
moving the wipers across the wind shield may dam age them .
