52 SAFETY INFORMATION
SAFETY TIPS FOR COLD WEATHER OPERATION
Driver Visibility
Poor driver visibility is not only annoying, but extremely unsafe under any
circumstance. Without proper maintenance of visibility-related components,
adverse weather conditions such as rain, snow and frost can seriously reduce
visibility. Take time before winter arrives to check the following:
•
Windshield Wipers
― Check windshield wiper operation and speeds.
― Inspect condition and travel of blades. Install new refills for any blades that are
cracked, brittle, torn, or coated with road oil along the wiping edge.
•
Windshield Washers
― Check operation of windshield washer.
― Inspect system hoses and replace if brittle or worn.
― Inspect washer reservoir. Drain and flush if dirt particles are evident in washer
solution.
― Fill reservoir with commercially available non-freezing type washer fluid.
CAUTION
Do NOT fill reservoir with water only. Even though non-freezing type washer fluid
is recommended, do not attempt to clear the windshield of ice by activating the
windshield washer and wipers. Ice accumulations should be removed manually
by using a scraper.
