Risk of injury.
Efficiency of a wiper blade
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. How long they last depends
on you:
– it must remain clean: clean the
blade and the screen regularly
with soapy water;
– do not use it when the screen is
dry;
– free it from the screen when it has
not been used for a long time.
In all cases, replace it as soon as
it begins to lose efficiency: approxi-
mately once a year. ➥ 5.38.
Precaution for using the
wipers
– In freezing or snowy weather
conditions, clear the screen
before starting the wipers (risk of
motor overheating);
– ensure that no objects are ob-
structing the travel of the blade.
