NOTE:
Life expectancy of wiper blades varies de-
pending on geographical area and fre-
quency of use. Poor performance of blades
may be present with chattering, marks, wa-
ter lines or wet spots. If any of these condi-
tions are present, clean the wiper blades or
replace as necessary.
Rear Wiper Blade Removal/Installation
1. Lift the pivot cap on the rear wiper arm
upward, this will allow the rear wiper blade to
be raised off of the liftgate glass.
NOTE:
The rear wiper arm cannot be raised fully
upward unless the pivot cap is raised first.
2. Lift the rear wiper arm upward to raise the
wiper blade off of the liftgate glass.
3. Grab the bottom of the wiper blade and
rotate it forward to unsnap the blade pivot
pin from the wiper blade holder.
4. Install the wiper blade pivot pin into the wiper
blade holder at the end of the wiper arm, and
firmly press the wiper blade until it snaps into
place.
5. Lower the wiper blade and snap the pivot
cap into place.
Adding Washer Fluid
The windshield and rear window washers share
the same fluid reservoir. The fluid reservoir is
located in the front of the engine compartment.
Be sure to check the fluid level in the reservoir
at regular intervals. Fill the reservoir with wind-
shield washer solvent (not radiator antifreeze)
and operate the system for a few seconds to
flush out the residual water.
When refilling the washer fluid reservoir, take
some washer fluid and apply it to a cloth or
towel and wipe clean the wiper blades, this will
help blade performance.
To prevent freeze-up of your windshield washer
system in cold weather, select a solution or
mixture that meets or exceeds the temperature
