WINDSHIELD WIPERS
Note:
Fully defrost the windshield before
you switch the windshield wipers on.
Note:
Make sure you switch the windshield
wipers and vehicle power off before using
an automatic car wash.
Note:
If streaks or smears appear on the
windshield, clean the windshield and the
wiper blades. See
Checking the Wiper
Blades
(page 220). If that does not resolve
the issue, install new wiper blades. See
Changing the Wiper Blades
(page 220).
Note:
Do not operate the wipers on a dry
windshield. This may scratch the glass,
damage the wiper blades or cause the wiper
motor to burn out. Always use the
windshield washers before wiping a dry
windshield.
