Contamination of either the
windscreen or the blades with foreign
matter can reduce wiper effectiveness.
Common sources are insects, tree sap,
and hot wax treatments used by some
commercial car washes.
In addition, an operation malfunction
may occur or the wiper effectiveness
may be reduced if a water-repellent
coating is used.
If the blades are not wiping properly,
clean the window and blades with a
good cleaner or mild detergent; then
rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Repeat if necessary.

Replacing Windscreen Wiper
Blades
When the wipers no longer clean well,
the blades are probably worn or
cracked.
Replace them.
CAUTION
¾
To prevent damaging a windscreen
wiper blade, wiper arm, or the
bonnet, perform the following
procedure.
¾
Before lifting the windscreen wiper
blades off the windscreen, always
move them to the service position.
¾ When putting the windscreen
wiper blades back on the
windscreen, make sure that they
are in the service position before
switching the power switch ON
and operating the windscreen
wipers.
¾ Replace with Mazda genuine wiper
blades. If they are replaced with
wiper blades other than a Mazda
genuine product, they may not wipe
with the same efficiency as the
genuine product.
¾ To prevent damage to the wiper
arms and other components, do not
try to sweep the wiper arm by hand.
¾ Do not bend the blade rubber
unnecessarily when replacing it.
Otherwise, the metal stiffener in the
blade may deform and the
windscreen wiper operation may be
adversely affected.
¾ Do not hold a wiper blade by its end
when raising the wiper arm.
Otherwise, the part may deform and
the wiping performance may lower.
¾
Forcefully lowering the wiper arms
could damage the wiper arm and
blade, and may scratch or crack the
windscreen.
NOTE
You can replace the wiper blades
yourself, however you cannot replace
the wiper arms.
If you want to replace the wiper arms,
consult an expert repairer (we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer).
Replace the wiper blades using the
following procedure.
1. Move the wipers to the service
positions using the following
procedure.
a) Switch the power switch ON.
b) Switch the power switch OFF.
c) Press up the wiper switch to the
MIST position 2 times within 30
seconds after switching the
power switch OFF.
When the procedure is
completed, the wipers operate
and they stop at the service
positions.
2. Raise the wiper arms.
