after a certain amount of time. It may not
work in some conditions such as cold
weather or engine OFF.

the washer fluid from freezing on the
windshield and obscuring your vision
which could result in an accident and
serious injury or death.

thinner, or other solvents on or near
them.

windshield adequately, the blades
may be worn or cracked, and require
