CAUTION
僅 Do not use gasoline, kerosene, paint
thinner, or other solvents on or near
them.
僅 Do not attempt to move the wipers
manually.
僅 The use of a non-specified wiper
blade could result in wiper malfunc
-
tion and failure.
僅 Do not allow the wiper arm to fall
against the windshield, since it may
chip or crack the windshield.
僅 If the wiper arm receives too much
force while pulling the blade, the cen
-
ter part may be damaged.
僅 The wiper could not operate for
approximately 10 seconds when the
wiper is operated without washer fluid
or the blades are frozen. This is not a
malfunction, it is a wiper protection
system activated by motor overload
circuit within the wiper motor.
僅 The front windshield should be
cleaned with water hose and wiped
with clean towel with wiper blades
raised up. Also, the wiper blades
should be wiped clean when the
grease or wax is applied to the blades.
NOTICE
Commercial hot waxes applied by auto
-
matic car washes have been known to
make the windshield difficult to clean.
