Windshield Wiper And Washer - Subaru IMPREZA 2002 Owner's Manual

This will cause deterioration of the wiper
blades.
NOTE
D The wiper operates only when the ignition
switch is in the " ON" or " ACC" position.
D Clean your wiper blades and window glass
periodically with a washer solution to prevent
streaking, and to remove accumulations of road
salt or road film. Keep the washer button
depressed at least for 1 second so that washer
solution will be sprinkled all over the windshield
or rear window.
D Grease, wax, insects or other material on the
windshield or the wiper blade 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 surface of the windshield or rear
window and the wiper blades using a sponge or
soft cloth with a neutral detergent or mild-abra-
sive 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.
D If you cannot eliminate the streaking even after
following this procedure, replace the wiper
blades with new ones. Refer to the " Wiper blade
replacement" section (chapter 11) for replace-
ment instructions.
