Wipers and Washers

Detail

NOTICE
Do not use the wipers when the windscreen is dry.
The windscreen will get scratched, or the rubber blades will get damaged.

NOTICE
In cold weather, the blades may freeze to the windscreen, becoming stuck.
Operating the wipers in this condition may damage the wipers. Use the demister to warm the windscreen, then turn the wipers on.


Turn the washers off if no washer fluid comes out.
The pump may get damaged.

The wiper motor is equipped with a breaker that may stop motor operation temporarily to prevent an overload. Wiper operation will return to normal within a few minutes, once the circuit has returned to normal.

If the wipers stop operating due to any obstacle such as the build-up of snow, park the vehicle in a safe place.

Rotate the wiper switch to OFF, and turn the ignition switch to ACCESSORY I or LOCK 0*1, then remove the obstacle.
