instruction of the
manufacturer.
The tap water cannot be used.
The minerals or impurities
contained in the tap water
may block the duct of the

water or radiator anti-freezing
agent in the washer fluid

Windshield wiper
Normal function of windshield wiper is
the precondition of ensuring clear
view and safe running. The condition
of the wiper blade is checked
regularly. Replace the wiper blade
which is hardened, vibrated, cracked
and stuck with dirt.
The foreign materials on the
windshield and wiper blade will reduce
the efficiency of wiper. If the wiper
cannot work normally, the special
solvent or neutral solvent is used to
wipe up the windshield and wiper
blade. Rinse thoroughly by water.
Please repeat above operations when
necessary. It is forbidden to use the
corrosive substance and substances
(such as, silicon resin) which cannot
be cleared on the glass to wipe and
paint the windshield.
The bead surface has a layer of
graphite,
which plays roles of
lubrication and protection, so it cannot
be wiped excessively and grinded
improperly.
