Vehicle Service and Care Notice: 9-25 • When using concentrated washer fluid, follow the manufacturer's instructions for adding water. Windshield Wiper Blade Replacement Front Windshield Wiper Windshield wiper blades should be inspected at least twice a year for wear or cracking. See At Least Twice a Year on page 11-13. Replacement blades come in different types and are removed in different ways. To remove the wiper blade: • Do not mix water with ready-to-use washer fluid. Water can cause the solution to freeze and damage your washer fluid tank and other parts of the washer system. Also, water does not clean as well as washer fluid. • Fill the washer fluid tank only three-quarters full when it is very cold. This allows for fluid expansion if freezing occurs, which could damage the tank if it is completely full. 2. Push the release lever and slide the wiper assembly toward the driver side of the vehicle. • Do not use engine coolant (antifreeze) in your windshield washer. It can damage the vehicle's windshield washer system and paint. 1. Pull the windshield wiper arm away from the windshield.
