WARNING
!
Replace your windshield wiper blades when they
become worn or damaged. Worn or damaged wiper
blades may cause damage to the windshield, as well
as interfere with the driver’s ability, possibly resulting
in a crash leading to injury or death.
Worn, damaged, or split rubber around the wiping
edge is generally caused by age and use, but may be
due to the effects of the sun’s ultraviolet rays on the
rubber. Damage may also be caused by ice scrapers,
automatic car washes, or vandalism. Damage to glass by
rocks, damaged wipers, or other foreign objects are not
warrantable repairs.
Proper care and maintenance of your wiper blades is
critical to maintain good visibility and safe operation of
the coach. Clean the rubber element every time you fill
your gas tank, and remove loose dirt and road grime
from the windshield. When washing your coach, use a
small amount of non-abrasive glass cleaner on a wet
sponge to clean both the windshield and the rubber
wiping elements. In colder climates, use an ice scraper
to remove snow and ice. Using your wipers to de-ice
your windshield can damage the blades, as well as the
arm and wiper motor.
Streaking, chattering, and worn blades may be caused
by dry rubber that has hardened and cracked. Streaking
can also be caused by oil, tree sap, road tar, or other
foreign substances on the blade rubber or windshield.
Chattering sounds as the blade passes across the
windshield are caused by the “deformity” or “curve” in
the rubber that some wiper blades develop over time.
