▼
To prevent damage to the wiper arms
and other components, do not try to
sweep the wiper arm by hand.
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.
NOTE
When raising both windscreen wiper arms,
raise the driver's side wiper arm first.
When lowering the wiper arms, slowly
lower the wiper arm from the passenger's
side first while supporting it with your
hand. Forcefully lowering the wiper arms
could damage the wiper arm and blade,
and may scratch or crack the windscreen.
To prevent damage to the windscreen
let the wiper arm down easily, do not
let it slap down on the windscreen.
