NOTICE
■ When lifting the windshield
wipers
● When raising the wiper arms off
the windshield, lift up the driver
side first, and then lift up pas-
senger side. When returning the
wipers to their original position,
return the passenger side first.
●
Do not lift a windshield wiper by
the wiper blade. Otherwise, the
wiper blade may be deformed.
● Do not operate the wiper lever
when the windshield wipers are
lifted. Otherwise, the wind-
shield wipers may contact the
hood, possibly resulting in dam-
age to the windshield wipers
and/or hood.
■ To prevent damage
● Be careful not to damage the
claws when replacing the wiper
insert.
● After the wiper blade is removed
from the wiper arm, place a
cloth, etc., between the rear
window and wiper arm to pre-
vent damage to the rear win-
dow.
● Be sure not to pull excessively
on the wiper insert or deform its
metal plates.
