NOTE: For reasons of safety, you should change the windshield wiper blades as soon as they start to leave marks on the windshield or fail to wipe efficiently and cleanly.

To obtain maximum lifetime from a set of wiper blades, clean them with a stiff-bristle brush and warm, soapy water as part of a normal car wash.

pg. 107 Replacing headlight wiper blades

Replacing headlight wiper blades (certain models)

Pull the wiper blade in the direction indicated by the arrow in the illustration to remove it. Press the new blade into place. Check that the new blade is properly attached to the wiper arm.

Cleaning the outside of the windshield and wiper blades

If the windshield/tailgate is not clear after using the wiper(s) or if the blade chatters when running, wax or other material may be on the blade or on the surface of the glass.

Clean the glass with a suitable cleaning agent. The glass is clean if beads do not form when you rinse it with water.

Clean the wiper blade by wiping vigorously with a cloth soaked in full strength windshield washer solvent. Then rinse the blade with water.

Wiper blades should be checked on a regular basis and replaced when worn.
