Wipers And Washers; Windshield Wipers; Autowipers - Ford FIESTA Owner's Manual

WINDSHIELD WIPERS

Note: Fully defrost the windshield before
you switch the windshield wipers on.
Note: Make sure you switch the windshield
wipers off before entering a car wash.
Note: If you use a car wash with a waxing
cycle, make sure that you remove the wax
from the windshield and the wiper blades.
Note: If streaks or smears appear on the
windshield, clean the windshield and the
wiper blades. See Checking the Wiper
Blades (page 162).
If that does not resolve the issue, install new
wiper blades. See Changing the Wiper
Blades (page 162).
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.

switching on the windshield wipers.
Note: Make sure the windshield wipers are

blades if they begin to leave streaks or

install new wiper blades.

conjunction with autowipers, low beam
