Windshield Wiper And Washer Switches - Subaru 2008 TRIBECA Owner's Manual

3-34
Instruments and controls
Grease, wax, insects or other mate-
rial on the windshield or the wiper
blades results in jerky wiper operation
and streaking on the glass. If you
cannot remove those streaks after
operating the washer or if the wiper
operation is jerky, clean the outer sur-
face of the windshield or rear window
and the wiper blades using a sponge or
soft cloth with a neutral detergent or
mild-abrasive cleaner. After cleaning,
rinse the window glass and wiper
blades with clean water. The glass is
clean if no beads form on the glass
when you rinse with water.
If you cannot eliminate the streaking
even after following this procedure,
replace the wiper blades with new
ones. Refer to the "Replacement of
wiper blades" section in chapter 11 for
replacement instructions.
