Body Lubrication; Wiper Blades - Mazda CX-5 2018 Owner's Manual

Hot waxes applied by automatic car
washers have been known to affect the
wiper's ability to clean windows.
To prevent damage to the wiper blades,
do not use petrol, paraffin, paint thinner,
or other solvents on or near them.
When the wiper lever is in the AUTO
position and the ignition is switched ON,
the wipers may move automatically in
the following cases:
If the windscreen above the rain sensor
is touched.
If the windscreen above the rain sensor
is wiped with a cloth.
If the windscreen is struck with a hand
or other object.
If the rain sensor is struck with a hand
or other object from inside the vehicle.
Be careful not to pinch hands or fingers
as it may cause injury, or damage the
wipers. When washing or servicing the
vehicle, make sure the wiper lever is in
the OFF position.
