WIPER BLADES
Change the wiper blades on your
vehicle at least twice a year or
when they seem less effective.
Substances such as tree sap and
some hot wax treatments used by
commercial car washes reduce the
effectiveness of wiper blades.
Checking
the wiper blades
If the wiper blades do not wipe
properly, clean both the windshield
and wiper blades using undiluted
windshield wiper solution or a mild
detergent. Rinse thoroughly with
clean water. To avoid damaging the
blades, do not use fuel, kerosene,
paint thinner or other solvents.
Changing
the wiper blades
To replace the wiper blades:
1. Pull the wiper arm away from
the windshield and lock into the
service position.
2. Turn the blade at an angle from
the wiper arm. Push the lock pin
manually to release the blade and
pull the wiper blade down toward
the windshield to remove it from
the arm.
3. Attach the new wiper to the
wiper arm and press it into place
until a click is heard.
