Replacing the wiper blades If the new fuse immediately blows out, there is a problem with the electrical system. Have your Toyota dealer correct it as soon as possible. You should normalize the power window and moon roof if they do not operate automatically or the jam protection function does not operate correctly after replacing blown fuses. To normalize the power window and moon roof, see "Power windows" on page 41 and "Electric moon roof" on page 52 in Section 1−2. Adding washer fluid If any washer does not work, the low windshield washer fluid level warning light comes on, the washer tank may be empty. Add washer fluid. You may use plain water as washer fluid. However, in cold areas where temperatures range below the freezing point, use washer fluid containing antifreeze. This product is available at your Toyota dealer and most auto parts stores. Follow the manufacturer's directions for how much to mix with water. CAUTION Never use a fuse with a higher amperage rating, or any other object, in place of a fuse. This may cause extensive damage and possibly a fire. NOTICE When the wipers no longer clean adequately, the wiper blades may be worn or cracked, requiring replacement. To remove the wiper blade from the arm, pull the blade in the direction of the arrow while squeezing the clip. Do not use engine antifreeze or any other substitute because it may damage your vehicle's paint. NOTICE Be careful not to scratch the glass surface with the wiper frame. 375
