Windshield Wiper Blades

Clean the rubber edges of the wiper blades
and the windshield periodically with a
sponge or soft cloth and a mild nonabrasive
cleaner. This will remove accumulations of
salt or road film.
Operation of the wipers on dry glass for long
periods may cause deterioration of the wiper
blades. Always use washer fluid when using
the wipers to remove salt or dirt from a dry
windshield.
Avoid using the wiper blades to remove frost
or ice from the windshield. Keep the blade
rubber out of contact with petroleum prod-
ucts such as engine oil, gasoline, etc.
NOTE:
Life expectancy of wiper blades varies
depending
on
frequency of use. Poor performance of
blades may be present with chattering,
marks, water lines, or wet spots. If any of
these conditions are present, clean the wiper
