Clear snow and ice from the wiper
blades before using them. If frozen

thaw them. Damaged wiper blades
should be replaced. For more

Wiper Arm Assembly Protection
When using an automatic car wash,
move the windshield wiper lever to
the OFF position. This disables the
windshield wipes and/or rear wipers,
if equipped.
The wiper operations return to
normal when the transmission is no
longer in N (Neutral) or the vehicle
speed has increased.
